Missional Versus Attractional


In my shared items list, you will find two articles discussing ways of measuring the effectiveness of a church. Most of the article is more appropriate to applying to Trinty as a whole than just to a single ministry (or worship service) within it. But I was struck by one of his comments that I think speaks to the overall goal in all that we do.
There ought to be a visible impact crater around every congregation. The community around the building, and the people around the people of the congregation ought to be different and getting better in measurable ways because you are who you are and where you are.

What kind of crater is Trinty currently making in our community? And what kind of crater should a new service make?
