But, says Alan J. Roxburgh, these conversations still prioritize church success over mission--how can being missional grow my church? But to focus on such questions misses the point.<br/><br/>In <i>Missional</i>, Roxburgh calls Christians to reenter their neighborhoods and communities to discover what the Spirit is doing there--to start with God's mission. He then encourages readers to shape their local churches around that mission. With inspiring true stories and a solid biblical base, <i>Missional</i> is a book that will change lives and communities as its message is lived out.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>You can transform your community<br/><br/></b>The missional church movement is a sign that we increasingly feel the call to impact our communities, which is a good thing.
