HRG 1.9 But what if we don't want to?! (Keith Howard)

9. Based on study of Dave Gibbons, The Monkey and the Fish.

This quote might summarize the first 107 pages.

“All of this presents an amazing opportunity for the church to become the most relevant, most vibrant, most vital element of people’s lives – both to the young and the old. But to pull that off, we need to radically shift our thinking from believing that success means being a safe place for people to catch up and be together for an hour or two on Sunday and maybe hear an entertaining message, to recognizing that we are, first and foremost, a movement of people called to a dangerous mission.”

What is there in us that might resist this being true?
