Thinking Shift

Being 'missional' is not just another phase or some kind of program. It is what the Body of Christ is called to be and do. We must shift our thinking in ways such as those of Ed Stetzer and David Putman in their book, "Breaking the Missional Code" (Broadman & Holman, 2006) . . .

From programs to processes
From demographics to discernment
From models to missions
From attractional to incarnational
From uniformity to diversity
From professional to passionate
From seating to sending
From decisions to disciples
From additional to exponential
From monuments to movements
