Denominational leaders, whatever else their job may continue to be today, are to be Holy Spirited disturbers and catalysts who also are to exhort and encourage churches towards their missional purposes in their communities. They will try to find and help to tell stories of where faithful, continual and new mission-shaped ministries are happening. They will seek to leverage such forward so that other examples and attempts at faithful mission-shaped living and ministry may occur.
Perhaps, as with a Google Browser home/search page, there will be little further there than pointers and search-links, to stories and resources, to gifted enablers and leaders who can help teach, challenge, nurture and enable, based on the queries and needs of those who seek their assistance.
The stories of churches still linked in the sharing of resources, mutual encouragement and inspiration, will serve as stimuli that provoke others to similar good works in their own respective, local and regional contexts.
