Highlights
 
  • What would it take for us (the church) to reach every man, woman, and child in the United States?
  • We have to rethink the way we engage the culture with the gospel.  Sometimes I think we’ve turned the living waters of the gospel into the frozen waters
  • The church in North America has been largely focused on “just give me the app.”
  • The church isn’t so much a revalancy issue as it is an accessibility issue.
  • Four Powerful Questions:  What does God want?  What would that look like?  What is the cost? How does your church measure success?
  • Does our score card for success match up with God’s?
