I’m facing this question now in my own home church, where I’m an elder and where I serve on the worship team when I’m not traveling. Our congregation of 750 – 800 people has, in partnership with Team Expansion, ‘adopted’ an unreached people group in the Middle East. We set the next 6 months as a period of mobilization and activation, with the hopes that during those six months, God would raise up a team of on- site workers… maybe out of our own church… to go live among the group to become agents of change there and to live out & portray, somehow, the message of Christ. So now comes the question: How do we fire up our church? Say you had 6 months to do so, what would you recommend? Would you give us your time line… give us your slate of ideas? If so, please jot down your suggestions and recommendations at
