Have your plans, prepare well, but hold those plans loosely.
In Episode 279 of the NewChurches Q&A Podcast, Daniel and Ed discuss developing a launch team for a missional attractional church. Here’s Chris with today’s questions:
We are planting a church this year and are in the launch team, developmental, and training phase. What would you focus on if you could go back and train a launch team for a missional attractional model?
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- The disadvantage of focusing so much on other people’s church models.
- The importance of being dynamic and open to shifting things.
