181: How To: Missional Community in Any Context
“Missional community life probably works great where you live, but you don’t understand my context. People are different here…” I’ve heard this a zillion times.
This week on the Lifeschool Podcast, we discuss whether or not it’s actually possible to start and sustain a missional community in any context: urban, suburban, rural… the moon!
Jesus commanded us to go and make disciples, teaching and modeling his life to people, in every context… in every nation. He only and always made disciples in community, living his life closely with others. I think we oughta trust Jesus on this one!
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- Why Jesus always made disciples in community.
- Did Jesus start the first missional community?
- The surprising similarities to the challenges people face in every context.
- The close correlation between how healthy families function and missional community life.
- Tips for figuring out the DNA of your particular community, in your context.
From this episode:
“One thing that is universal about a missional community in any context, is that this sort of lifestyle is going to be messy. It is not a weekly Bible study or an hour-long, one-on-one meeting. You’ll need to give your whole life to making disciples the way Jesus did!”
