The power of collaboration in the Western Church

Collaboration is seen as a technique and a key element for the future of the church in the Western world. The European church, struggling and declining, serves as a warning to the Western church that preservation of outdated systems and Eurocentric ecclesiology can lead to its demise. The call for the Western church is to adopt a missionary stance and form partnerships to address the challenges of a rapidly changing society. Collaboration is not only a necessary strategy, but it also aligns with the concept of networks and impact networks, where the power of the church as an impact network can make a substantial difference in addressing societal issues and spreading the gospel.
