Description

Comprised of people and operating in places that are each shaped by a tapestry of histories, traditions, and narratives, the life and witness of local churches are profoundly cultural realities. At the same time, though it will be expressed differently across time and space, the Church shares in a common mission – testifying in word and deed to the good news of God’s Kingdom. This mission takes on unique shape and power in light of Jesus’ resurrection. In particular, the resurrection invites the question, “What would it look like for the life-giving power of God to find expression among this people, in this place, for the sake of God’s mission in the world?”
