Survival or Mission?

Survival or Mission? Unknown For too long the church has been becalmed in the backwaters of a dying age, frightened by the swift waters of the new age coming into being. The church has for too long structured its life for survival rather than mission. The church must set its sail and move into the mainstream of life in the revolutionary world where every structure and form is called into question. The church must pattern its life in ways designed to make possible obedience to Christ regardless of institutional survival.  Source: Ecumenical Institute in early 1960's Add your thoughts at inward/outward This message is a daily service of inward/outward.
