Comment on Missional: Movement vs. Institutionalism by robwestbrook

@MarkEn Looking forward to getting that book. Alan Hirsch is, in my opinion, the voice of the next wave of the church. I’m heading in that direction now. Breaking completely out of my pre-programmed view of church is difficult but I think I’m about to find my way.

There’s an extra period at the end of your link. Here’s the corrected link: http://dld.bz/Z5ba

Disturbing the status quo is the subject of a new book by Michael Frost and Alan Hirsch called The Faith of Leap. The authors believe that the church needs to eschew its comforts and securities and begin taking risks and living life adventurously if it is to survive. Here’s a link: http://dld.bz/Z5ba. Breaking away from institutionalized church will take people who are willing to engage the culture by taking risks in reaching out to communities and letting go of control of outcomes.

Makes sense, even this late in the afternoon! And that, I think, is what Hirsch refers to as protecting the “institution.” One of his suggestions to break out of this is to make decisions as a group. I can see where this might be good in a smaller group setting, but I’m wondering what it would look like in a group of 100 or more.

hmmm. I’d say one way is to keep teaching that it’s ok to recognize we could be doing better. I feel like we have this almost fatalistic mindset that whatever we’re currently doing must be God-ordained so we shouldn’t question it. Does that make sense at all? It’s late in the afternoon!
