Episode #7: ‘N.A.S.A.: “We can write a better Mission Statement than you can!”’
Doug Pagitt Joins us for the second half of his talk to The Emerging Church for the Existing Church Conference. Doug talks about how culture is made up of four areas, 1) Thinking, 2) Values, 3) Aesthetic (What we like), 4) Tools we use to get life done. He talks about how each of these can better help us understand what is church and why so much difference and so many challenges are happening in it. This is an amazing talk and we hope you enjoy it!
Here is a quote from Doug that someone wanted him to repeat…and it is a good one:
“I think that Christianity is fundamentally a people movement that we should understand in a social networking theory, not a belief system that we distribute through institutional applications and franchising models.”
Oh, and here are a few links to some of the things Doug talks about in his session:
