ARE YOU MISSION MINDED OR MAINTENANCE MINDED?
ARE YOU MAINTENANCE MINDED OR MISSION MINDED? If your church is one that revolves around itself and provides programs and services for its members, it's a MAINTENANCE church. This is the church where politics, positions, elections, titles and groupism is the dominant factor. Result: only biological growth and no spiritual growth and next generation leaves the church. In a mission minded church, th...ey are focused on how the programs and ministries will draw in the lost, and how they can personally bring new people to church and ultimately to CHRIST. The members and the leadership are willing to sacrifice their personal preferences to win the lost and the members make the people outside the church more important than those inside. Result: Members love and support one another- but their camaraderie is that of battlefield soldiers, united for a greater purpose: that of rescuing the lost souls beyond the church walls. This church will enjoy tremendous growth in membership, spiritual growth, and next generation will serve their God of their fathers and will have a purpose in life. OMG, STOPPPPP playing church!!!
