KINGDOM GROWTH THROUGH MISSIONAL BEHAVIOR

Growing a Relational Congregation

Beschreibung

This recount of practical experience, psychological and theological wisdom is made available to the neophyte and to the experienced worker in God’s vineyard in a way that will be easy and useful to follow. There is a missional reality that supports a lifestyle! Essentially, a missional reality coalesces around a personalized grasp of scripture that offers a theological shift, a sociological direction, and a distinct lifestyle for believers. The missional mindset is placed in the context of viewing the Cross through the Empty Tomb, seeing culture as a vehicle of communication, the church as a force to work with, not of a field in which to work, because the community and the world is a mission field ready for harvest. What is the Missionary Mindset? What does a missionary know and how do they feel about the lost world? They know beyond a doubt they have been called to serve outside their comfort zone. Kingdom Growth through Missional Behavior is adopting the thinking, behaviors, and practices of a missionary in order to establish and globalize the message of Grace. The scriptural foundation stones for this work were found in Thessalonians, Paul’s first letters to a new congregation. A pristine congregation was planted that was unspoiled, a gathering of believers who belonged to the Lord. While on his way to Corinth, Paul sent Timothy back to check on the condition and growth of the new believers.
