Christianity is an adventure of the spirit or it is not Christianity.

I found out the hard way that if we don't disciple people, the culture sure will.

In short, apostolic movement involves a radical community of disciples, centered on the lordship of Jesus, empowered by the Spirit, built squarely on a fivefold ministry, organized around mission where everyone (not just professionals) is considered an empowered agent, and tends to be decentralized in organizational structure.

Christianity is an adventure of the spirit or it is not Christianity.

The safety-obsessed church lacks the inner dynamic to foster profound missional impact in our time.

A missional theology...appl ies to the whole of life of every believer. Every disciple is to be an agent of the kingdom of God, and every disciple is to carry the mission of God into every sphere of life. We are all missionaries sent into a non-Christian culture.

If we could be freed from our aversion to loss, our whole outlook on risk would change.
