Approaching Missional
When on a long journey, you have to get beyond asking,
“Are we there yet?”
Instead, start asking, “Are we making progress?”

Approaching MissionalBoth/And
The Struggle:
Life is too messy to fit, I’m supposed to be preaching the truth and I’m not even sure what the truth is anymore.
The only thing I’m confident about is that I
don’t have all the answers anymore. McLaren

The Missional Church
![Page 20: Approaching Missional Implications along the Pathway!](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062307/551519a85503465e608b5030/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Missional ChurchEvangelism
Instead of Conquest,
coercive rational Argument,
emotionally intimidating Sales Pitch,
imposing Crusade
or aggressive Debate
to “WIN” them to Christ…
I think of this as a “DANCE” where everybody wins and nobody loses!
Brian McLaren

We must focus more on advancing
the Kingdom of God
and less on advancing the “kingdom”
of our local church or ministry!-Ray Bakke
