Missional Communities
*Read the story, then each person in the group re-tells or acts out a small part until it is retold. Ask if anything was added or omitted when it was retold.
Missional Communities are how we obey the command to 'meet together to encourage one another to love and good deeds' (Hebrews 10:24-25).
The church is depicted by Paul as the Body of Christ – each part joined in love and functioning in relation to the whole to embody Jesus in our communities (1 Cor 12). But generations of church practices have entrenched 'church' as a producer / consumer relationship between the leaders and the congregation. In addition our consumer society has encouraged people to view church as a service-provider resulting in pick-and-choose and take-it-or-leave-it attitudes.
