Thinking/Being Missional ~ Thinking/Being Sent
Labels:

New Church planting
Ever since we began Arise Christian Church, the topic of "missional" has ran through all conversations. In fact, with just talking about new church planting, the discussion on "missional vs. attractional" is at the top of the list.
Over the last couple of weeks I've come across a couple of videos and blogs about thinking/being missional that I find to be great. They have really affected how I think and what it means to be sent...and I love it!
Romans 10:14-15 says,
How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
Here are 2 videos and a blog post by Ed Stetzer that have sparked my imagination about what it means to be in the "middle of the marketplace" (using a theater church term).

What would it look like if, as leaders, we focused less on the things that make our churches entertaining and more on making disciples?
