MNST 6165 Leading Healthy Missional Change

The seven last words of a dying church are, "We've never done it that way before." What changes need to occur in order for congregational culture to become healthier and more missional? How does a church determine what to preserve, create and discard in order to more fully accomplish the mission? What is the difference between transition and change? How do pastors discern between "too much too soon" or "too little too late?" Healthy missional churches accept the reality of change in order to be more nimble and responsive to how the Holy Spirit is moving. All living things change.
