Re-inventing the "BOX"
I heard a speaker tonight saying that to be relevant in the mission of the church it is necessary for leaders to not only think outside of the box, but to re-invent the box. The contents remain the same - the centrality and authority of scripture, the call of all to the gospel of Christ, the foundations of the faith... but the box can be a thing of distinction; a shape, a color, a texture that calls us to open it and explore the riches of the content.
Hopefully in ministering to women we can move beyond the yearly tea or mother/daughter banquet to putting our energy into challenging one another to dig deep into the Word, to apply it in the nitty gritty realities of our lives and to break out of our comfort zones and into the hurting world around us.
