The topics touched on in the first class energized my thinking about church and mission because they gave words to unspoken thoughts and experiences I have had within the church. Dr. Bolger made several points that stood out and grabbed me emotionally:
-The American church should have never thought 'church here and mission there'
-The barrier to the gospel is social not theological
-The gospel can find its way in any culture
-No one should have to change cultures to follow Jesus
-Do church according to your specific community, don't buy the model
I can't wait to explore these issues!
