Quote of the Week
The future is about the decentralization of the church to where it's every person in every domain of society in the pew connecting with domains and people globally. That is a radically different church from what we have seen and it will have radically different results that will frankly be more healthy. It's not about missions; it's about globalization. People have become global beings. The problem with the word global is that it says "way over there." That is incomplete. It's way over there and here at the same time. That is why it's glocal. Missions is a religious response. Humanitarianism is a societal response. But if we look at Jesus, we will plant a healthy, holistic faith that has the ability to lovingly, not forcefully, transform society.
