Can You Imagine What Sundays Would Be Like If...

by Josh Duncan


we spent less time looking at the back of people's heads and more time having face-to-face conversations?

we spent more time getting to know each other and praying with each other?

the pastor's message or the style of music was no longer the centerpiece of Sunday morning?

being a part of a church wasn't about attendance but about living authentically as a group of imperfect people who are being transformed by a perfect God?

everything we did reflected our desire to join Jesus in His mission to see people become followers of Him?

we measured "success" by what happens 7 days a week instead of just on Sundays?

As a church, we're trying to imagine these things. We've been casting vision for a new perspective on church, and this Sunday, we're continuing the process of making these practical changes by creating a new atmosphere and experience on Sunday mornings. For us, Sundays are no longer only about sitting in rows listening to music and preaching, but it's about doing life together as a community of people. Start the journey with us this Sunday. Connect with our community. We're praying God will multiply our efforts throughout the city so that dozens if not hundreds of authentic communities of Jesus followers will join Him in His mission rather than merely be content with attending a service on Sunday!
