Even though it is Christmas, I cannot make my mind take a break from working on the fundamental calling of my life. I believe that the rest of my working life will be devoted to the reformation of the Presbyterian Church USA along the lines of what we are calling the missional church. One of the purposes of my blogging is to publicaly muse (even if only to myself) about what this means. I am not the only one doing this, and I hope to hear what others are thinking.
Today, a quote from Alan Roxburgh: "Leadership is not about enlightenment, but cultivation of an environment that releases the missional imagination of God's ordinary people...Jesus' birth stories tell us that God and God's future meet us--in the ordinary and everyday."
Christmas and missional thinking do go together!
