Intro to the Missional Church Class Notes
This past weekend I taught a class at The Well called, “An Introduction to the Missional Church.” It as basically a very broad overview of the topic and a crash course in how we structure things here at The Well and why we do the things that we do. I’m more than happy to post my notes here (At hte request of a few friends) because, well, most of this stuff is borrowed from people who are much, much smarter than I. I’m really not sure how much you’ll be able to get from these notes if you weren’t there but hopefully you can get something…
For the record, it was John Chandler who provided me with the idea for the outline of the class. It worked really, really well. So, props to him. Actaully, you’ll notice that he stole it from Alan Hirsch and Michael Frost… so props to them I guess. John, you are just the middle man!
Anyways, here they are…

Todd-
I’m just beginning to try to help my established congregation turn itself into a missional focus.
I really like the notes and presentation, but where I struggle is where your presentation leaves off…what does this look like practically…what are the practices your community is a part of…in what ways is your community different in appearance, look and action than what I see going on in my established non-missional congregation?
just looking for some practical, concrete things I can point to as I think about helping my congregation move in another direction.
