may we be willing to live radically as the people of Jesus who lay all down before Him knowing that only here is real life found.
hilarious video with leadership lessons about leading, following and what it takes to see movements birthed.

A preview i found at tim pynes’ blog for “dive”, a film about waste in america and those who see dumpster diving as part of the solution.
very well done video intro to the missional church.
here’s the comment i left at the blog (missionalchurchnetwork.com) which originally published the vid: .
great video. really well done. actually, your blog is very thoughtful as well and a great resource.
anyway, i’ve been so excited to see the missional renaissance that we are experiencing here in north american church thinking. what a breath of fresh air for all of us who have been a part of the church calling the world to come to us but rarely seeing our identity as a community of sent people or people on mission. my only critique or push back against the missional church is that often the focus has been on us being cultural geniuses who exegete our cultures and therefore know what we are to do based upon what is the most appropriate way to contextualize the gospel. while this can work at times i believe that Jesus laid out for us the key to understanding His ministry in Jn 5:19 when He said He does nothing of His own initiative but only what the Father shows Him. it is my thought that in light of Jesus’ own statement about His utter dependance on the Father to set the agenda, that we need to be people who simply live our lives as those who listen to God, do what He says and teach others to do the same. as we do, i expect we will see greater missional fruitfulness as the byproduct of us being first and foremost the listening church, than we ever would if it was up to us to be missional by our own strategic planning. your thoughts?
an example from our organic church community here in denver of how mission flows from listening to God.
I was interviewed for a documentary on organic church ( or simple or house church) a while back by a team of simple church leaders in las vegas who are a part of the four square denomination.
what are your thoughts about the content of the video?
comments, critiques, push backs or whatever you’d like to share would be appreciated.
