After one of our city-wide preview services on Sunday morning we all walked down to Phoenix Park which is close to the library. It's a place known for where a pocket of homeless people gather in their community. Often times people give them food when walking by. We wanted to do a little bit more by throwing an Embrace cookout. We fed many of our Embrace folks along with 175 of our closest friends! One person commented to me how they enjoyed the service but questioned what we were doing afterwards. They asked me if we were going to be like of those "missional churches"? My response was "is there any other church?" I believe all churches should be missional reaching out beyond the four-walls of a building structure.
