Vision Sunday - The Wineskin Principle

4 January 2009
10:00 amto12:00 pm

As we start a new year we have some exciting things we feel God is going to do amongst us. Note the date in the diary and aim to be there.

At both Sunday morning and Elevate Mike Betts will be seeking to cast vision for our next season and speaking on The Wineskin principle - transition and change in a much loved setting.

Someone once said ‘If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you have always had’. There is truth in this. We live in times of huge change and transition in our nation, in our communities and in our personal lives. Our world seems to be constantly changing and adjusting.

  • How do we as a local church remain true to the mission and the message whilst at the same time adjusting to our ever changing world?
  • How do we avoid getting stuck in a rut?
  • How do we change and expand without over stretching our reach?
  • How can we make required adjustments to reach our town and area?

God has been challenging us to change not just how we do church but how we view church.

The ‘wineskin principle’ will help us see how we can flow with the Holy Spirit effectively stewarding all he is doing amongst us.
