Where did the term originate, and why does it matter?
click on the above link for an interesting read from our denomination's website
"The term missional church has become a buzzword
in Christian circles—meaning different things to different people.
When some hear the term they roll their eyes and think, Yet another church-growth fad.
For others, their heart beats a bit faster, envisioning a church
that is more evangelistic or more holistic or more involved in the
community or more outward-focused."
...
"
The missional impact of the church must also go
beyond evangelism alone to intentional kingdom
influence in the larger community,
reflecting the justice and compassion of God."
