Keep it Simple Stupid!

I think it surprised everyone at the Advance09 Conference (@Advance09) to hear Mark Driscoll (@MarsHill) recommending that churches
should cut down, if not eliminate, all of their programming and para-church
involvement save for two.  The first is
what he calls the “Air War” which is the Sunday worship service and the second
is the “Ground War” or small groups.

Now, for most, this seems a bit drastic.  But it does beg the question when we have so
many irons in the fire, are we making the impact that we intended?  As we consult with churches all over the
nation, we find that many church administrators get caught in the crossfire of conflicting
schedules and tight budgets.  Then,
unwittingly, these faithful workers lose sight of the passion that originally
attracted them to their roles.  And just
as passion is contagious, so is apathy. 
So perhaps before we take on another heaping portion of responsibility
we should ask ourselves, have I been a good steward of what I already have…?
