Dwelling in the Word

Listening Reflections

What do we mean by “missional”?

What do we mean by “missional”? God’s Mission God’s People God’s Work in the World

What do we mean by “missional”? It’s not the church of God that has a mission in the world, but the God of mission that has a church in the world… It’s not that the church has a mission, but God’s mission has a church!

Discerning

Where is God at work in your congregation?

Where is God at work in your neighborhood?

Next Steps Listening reports Forming conversation groups For next time we gather
