For a lot of people the idea of the “Missional Church” might be quite new, so I am planning over the next few weeks to be regularly posting some articles and links to people who are both thinking about, and practicing these ideas.

A good first start is to head over to “Friend of Missional” some great stuff there to get us thinking. I want to post up this list of how the missional church is different from the more traditional forms of church.

From programs to processes
From demographics to discernment
From models to missions
From attractional to incarnational
From uniformity to diversity
From professional to passionate
From seating to sending
From decisions to disciples
From additional to exponential
From monuments to movements
From services to service
From ordained to the ordinary
From organizations to organisms
