The Church has been likened to many things. Some metaphors have been helpful and others have slowed down its impact. How a church leader sees the Church has direct implications on its trajectory.
In this episode, church leaders will be introduced to a new method of envisioning how God sees the Church and what that means for the local church. If the Church is a vehicle for the message of hope, then the metaphors we use must change in order to keep up with the demands of a changing world.
Every leader is asking this question about the future: “Where are we going?” It’s been said that there are three types of leaders: those who watch what happens, those who ask what happened, and those who make it happen. More often than not, leaders are frustrated and unclear about the future. Many are living out of alternate future paradigms that are outdated and prehistoric.
But there’s a better way. One that involves joy in the journey, clarity, and confidence. Cutting-edge leaders are able to chart a preferred future by involving those in their circle. In this series you will learn how to join God in his missional future by co-creating in a way that adds value to the people you’re leading within your church and community.
