Matthew 18: What it means to be the Church…
And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me.
Matthew 18:5
The meeting of Congregational Developers kicked off at GBGM in New York City this afternoon with an exercise focusing on the Gospel of Matthew, ch. 18.
It was interesting to hear folks from all over the country discuss this…and we had an idea that came out of the experience. Here goes:
Read all of Matthew 18 and come up with a theme and three or four words to describe the theme. Here’s mine:
Always Seek (theme)
search
open
forgive
We’d love to see your ideas posted here.
