Mike Frost speaking about the future of the Church
A million people left the churches in the ten years between 1989 and 1998. The latest figures show that the decline is slowing down, but it's hardly enough to claim that we're 'pulling out of the nose dive.'
It's time for a rethink. We need to start thinking like missionaries to our own country. Many of the people around us have no idea what the message of Jesus is about. We need to infiltrate their worlds with the Good News. We need to go where they are, rather than waiting for them to come to us to hear the message on our terms. As Mike Frost says:
Mike Frost is one of the world's leading thinkers about how the Church needs to change. He's the author of 'Exiles: living missionally in a post-Christian culture,' and co-author (with Alan Hirsch) of 'The Shaping of Things to Come: innovation and mission for the 21st-century church.'
Here are three talks given by Mike at the 'Future Church' event in Central Hall Southampton on 3-4 October 2008 (and at the end of this page there's a link to some videos of Mike):
Talk 1, Friday evening 3rd October
Talk 2, Saturday morning, 4th October
Talk 3, Saturday evening, 4th October
