It is even rarer to find Christian organisations that have done the hard biblical work of defining what they do, organisations that define what I call an operational theology of their mission… I can guarantee that when we work largely from unstated assumptions in our personal lives, churches or organisations, the values of the dominant culture are going to slip in and shape not only what we do, but how we do it. And we won’t even notice.
