The Future of the Assemblies of God

Wow!!!

For the last 8 hours I have sat with our General Superintendent, George Wood, and a host of other pastors and A/G leaders.

The context of the meeting was "what do we as a movement and leaders need to do to keep this church from becoming stagnant?"

Some comments very eye opening and sober.

What are your thoughts- what do we need to focus on and emphasize?

The Mission of the Church

Jesus said in Luke 10:19 that He came to seek and to save that which is lost.

His mission was proactive (seek) and redemptive (save).

With only 3 out of 20 churches growing in America it appears we have lost focus on doing the mission of Jesus!

Why have we lost our passion for the missing? I suggest we have embraced a culture of faithfulness instead of fruitfulness!

What say you?
