The chapter emphasizes the importance of prioritizing evangelism in the church and staying focused on reaching people who are not connected to the church. It discusses the problems that arise when internal issues or political/social causes take precedence over the message of Christ. The chapter also provides recommendations for churches to establish unity and maintain alignment on their mission.
Most churches start out on fire for their mission: to reach new people for Jesus. But as “new people” turn into “church people,” the voices on the inside of the church often become louder.
In this episode, Tony and Amy discuss the ways churches get off mission and become insider-focused and offer advice and inspiration on how to reverse this trajectory.
