The Shaking of Nations - A Harvest Tsunami Is On Its Way....
Again, these ideas are not wrong; but they can and do frustrate
the readiness of the church to reach and disciple the coming
harvest of millions of new believers.
The average western-style church is a biblical church if it keeps
the essential elements according to Jesus’s definition in Mat t.
16: 18-20 and 18:19-20. The problem is that we cannot quickly
produce millions of such churches in order to parallel world
population growth with evangelism growth.
There is no question that the western church model and its
unique type of leadership can produce splendid worship,
training, and specific targeted programs for people ’s needs. I
am not questioning that.
But on the whole, we must restore our focus on creating more
essential churches that can be formed quickly anywhere and
everywhere, inexpensively, directed and staffed by a “tr ain as
you go” vocational working leadership team. Only in this way
can we rapidly and effectively provide the shepherding and
discipleship communities that the coming harvest of new
believers will need.
