This is a good brief summary of 21st century missional reality.
Most United Methodists & United Methodist congregations are (in my humble opinion) "trapped" in the model that begins around 0:07.
Annual Conference & denominational leadership tend to be (in my humble opinion) somewhere around 0:40.
Those models have both been effective, but both are dated (they're SO 20th century).
21st century "missional ministry", which actually refers back to an earlier time, begins around 1:15.
Definitely worth some prayerful reflection...
Clever video. I agree that the model for ministry is shifting but how do we get there?
