A church that pitches its tents without constantly looking out for new horizons, which does not continually strike camp, is being untrue to is calling...[We must] play down our longing for certainty, accept what is risky, and live by improvisation and experiment. - Hans Kung, The Church as the People of God
Only God's Spirit gives new life. The Spirit is like the wind that blows wherever it wants to. You can hear the wind, but you don't know where it comes from or where it is going. - John 3:8 (CEV)
Much more than following any growth plan that promises "success," we need new church plants that boldly, obediently follow God's unpredictable Spirit to new horizons!
