Missional Church: A Unitarian Universalist Case Study
“Mission! It moves. It’s about looking around and seeing where you are in relation to what’s out there around you: seeing where you can connect, help, serve, be in relationship with, learn, and be part of “life more abundant” that gives existence meaning and depth and beautiful intensity. It’s about paying deep attention to your local context not to convert, but to engage with.”

Is “Growth” the Unitarian Universalist “Saved”?
I wonder if Unitarian Universalism puts so much energy into growth is because we lack a driving mission. I get the feeling that the mission and purpose of Unitarian Universalism is to make more Unitarian Universalists. When we have more Unitarian Universalists we will teach them how to make more Unitarian Universalists. Aren’t there better things for us to be doing?

“Mainline churches who want to be part of God’s future need leadership by impatient instigators rather than patient caretakers for the ecclesial status quo.” – Bishop Will Willimon
