It took me while to reflect on why I had a disquiet about yesterdays post<\/a> on Mike Frosts, Gaby Ngaboca and TSK’s conversation<\/a> around missional church. I think the root is that whilst Mikes examples in his talk seemed to be in an Outside Out<\/a> approach (and were truly inspiring), the way he phrased the question “what would our worship\/community\/disciple making look like if they were shaped by mission?” FEELS like an inside out approach to mission. <\/p>\n

The “our” word is problematic as whilst the way he discusses mission is more missio-dei this question is more inside out, and attractional (which I assume was not his intention based on other stuff he has written). TSK<\/a> comments that the culture then helps shape the way you then become missional church, but I wonder if by then due to the feel of the question and the insider start to the question ifgravitational pull <\/a>would have already kicked in for most churches. <\/p>\n
