Overview|Download
By combining practical service and a clear communication of the gospel, these churches seek to expand the kingdom beyond their four walls. There are many compelling stories of how this new emphasis began in each of these churches and also what they are doing today to expand their vision.
After examining what prompted some specific local churches to become more missional, church leaders are applying these lessons to their own contexts through these steps to becoming a missional church:
- LEVERAGE A BUILDING OR OTHER CAMPAIGN EFFORT TO ROLL OUT A CHURCH’S SHIFT IN EMPHASIS
- HIGHLIGHT THE NEEDS OF A CHURCH’S SURROUNDING COMMUNITY
- EXPOSE A CHURCH CONGREGATION TO THE STORY OF ANOTHER MISSIONAL CHURCH OR OTHER MISSIONAL LEADERS.
- PLACE KEY BOOKS IN THE HANDS OF CORE LEADERS
- SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES
