How to Shift The Vision For Church - Will Mancini

How do you shift the paradigm of church to a disciple making paradigm? Will Mancini shares an approach that can help you see church and what church is with new vision and help others do the same.
A paradigm is a way we see things. Often the way we see church is deeply engrained and can be very hard to change but it is not impossible. There are some things that can be done to have a new vision for church and how church members can catch the vision.
Who is your congregation? Is it everyone who attends? Is it the network of relationships of the members of your church? What if you were able to get people to connect the dots between who they know in their world with the kingdom mission?

I would say the most important audience a church has is the people it is yet to reach. Creating new believers, saving more people, that seems to be the best mission

That is a good point. My only point of reflection on it is wondering if that depends on your focus. For instance, in several passages it seems that the assembly's focus is on insiders not on outsiders. We see this in 1 Corinthians 14. In Galatians 6:10 we see that we are to do good to all, especially the household of faith. I think maybe why this is the case is because how would outsiders even begin to see the church as healthy if we didn't take care of each other (like the one another passages)? Where we can go wrong on that is taking that to the extreme and creating a country club that is impossible for people to break into!

Thanks for watching! How have you shifted the paradigm for an existing church to a discipleship focus?
