Being Missional May Hurt Your Church

Here's a re-blog from http://theresurgence.com/2010/10/10/being-missional-may-kill-your-church
I didn't like the 'kill' language - why do people have to be so extreme in their statements?  Can't they trust that we'll pay attention if they have a good idea?  Anyway... enough with the gripe.  Here's the quote that I thought we could think about together:
In Breaking the Missional Code, Ed Stetzer explains how the church has shifted to missional thinking in the following way:
  • From programs to processes
  • From demographics to discernment
  • From models to missions
  • From attractional to incarnational
  • From uniformity to diversity
  • From professional to passionate
  • From seating to sending
  • From decisions to disciples
  • From additional to exponential
  • From monuments to movements
