well said…
Today I read a post from Craig Groeschel (pastor of LifeChurch.tv) that is very well said…and I have to share.
The last couple of months we have been trying to lead and position nbc for God to use us to influence our community with the message of Christ. Our leadership team has been in prayerful dialogue about how to expand our influence and increase the spiritual depth of the people who are calling nbc their church community. Recently we have recognized the need to reshape how we assume people grow…and what we need to be as a church in order to better reach and grow people. I thought it was interesting to read Craig’s thoughts today that mirror a lot of the conversations we have been having within our teams.
Craig writes: “To reach the next generation for Christ, we must be three things: Conversational, Missional, and Generational.”
I couldn’t agree more.

“Conversation matters. Relationships matter. Intimacy matters.”
Good thoughts on this blog. I would go further in saying that these things matter on only to the “younger” generation (20’s, 30’s ) that Craig was referring to, but to all the people.
