@djcimino When you say "outside of normal corporate worship" are you saying they do it apart from corporate worship or just not at the normal Sunday morning corporate service?
@Jacob_A_Webb@jeretics@SEdburg@PolityMatters 2. In the month between now and General Assembly commissioners will have over 1000 pages to review. Adding nearly 300 more pages so they can make an informed consideration, on top of being pastors, elders, fathers, and sons seems unreasonable.
@sdesocio Also few teams are mobilized within 72 hours of a disaster. Usually there is an assessment team and advice to immediate churches, but most teams are told to wait until things are safe, secured, and work is set up.
@thebocollins And to whatever extent you're right about serial planting, presbyteries have hurt themselves in going along with it and not providing sufficient oversight. I think another denominational entity is guilty of the same.
@JamminChad Paul was pointing to the outcomes accomplished by Christ. He was not using Church Growth Movement principles to determine budgetary allocations. There's a big difference between noses and nickels versus trusting God to bring about the desired outcome from faithful service.
@Fozzybear_Lives "Only enhances" means, it corroborates/sharpens what I already thought. Confirms what pre-existed. I don't have confidential information. But if I did I am not obliged to share any more than SJC is obliged to share the minutes of trial that back up their public judgment.
@Fozzybear_Lives I have concerns about how the resources are being managed now. The report seems primarily focused on finances not prayer. I am not saying that MNA doesn't care about prayer at all.
@sdesocio How do you outcome base Disaster Response? We budget responding to 10 natural disasters. Whelp there were only 4 so way to not meet your objectives.
