I. Discern Discern your context 1. Missionary Mentality

Missionary Mentality To the weak I became weak, in order to win the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that I may by all means save some. Now I do all this because of the gospel, that I may become a partner in its benefits. (1 Corinthians 9:22–23)

Missionary Mentality BY THE NUMBERS: “The activities of our church are designed to relate to the type of people who live in our city or community.” (64 percent strongly or moderately agree)

Missionary Mentality “Our congregation cares deeply about the people in our city or community.” (81 percent strongly or moderately agree) “Our church leaders think as missionaries in how they view the cultural context within our region.” (67 percent strongly or moderately agree)

Missionary Mentality “Our church members are frequently reminded about the unique opportunities to impact those who live in the city or community surrounding the church.” (69 percent strongly or moderately agree)

THE “BIG” MESSAGES

The “Big” Messages 1. The Definition: A Transformational Church is a congregation that joins God’s mission of sharing the gospel and making disciples. Those disciples become more like Jesus, and the church thus acts as the body of Christ transforming their communities and the world for the kingdom of God.

The “Big” Messages 2. The Goals People live like Jesus Churches act like the body of Christ Communities reflect the kingdom of God

The “Big” Messages 3. Calling for a New Scorecard Refining the old scorecard Retaining “gold standard” measurements Include new measurements: environment, atmosphere, context, anticipation

The “Big” Messages 4. The Hope

The “Big” Messages 5. Transformation When the gospel enters the frame, the picture changes
