Balance Between Institutions and Movements
Institutions serve as crucial mediating structures that prevent the exercise of power through brute force, charisma, or influence, thereby fostering accountability and healthier processes. In the context of church planting, there's a tendency to malign institutions when discussing movements. However, both healthy institutions and healthy movements are essential for effective change. While the current focus may not solely be on building movements, forming missional friendships or kingdom-centered relationships plays a significant role. Ultimately, change progresses at the speed of trust, highlighting the interdependence of relationships and structures in fostering meaningful transformation.
