Our Congregation – Norman Rockwell or 21st Century?
In our fast-paced society, many today look back, with nostalgia, on the days when the "Saturday Evening Post" was popular. Those Norman Rockwell days remind us of dearly loved traditions. Yet, the "Saturday Evening Post" of the past, which we loved, no longer exists. Why? In this forum we will compare a congregation that has a "Saturday Evening Post" vision for mission, with a congregation that has a 21st century vision for mission. And, we will ask the question: How do we raise up faithful, Christ-centered leaders for 21st century congregations?
