Not least with regard to church websites. Most present the church as being a building. Where there are some meetings you are welcome(ish) to. In Internet Evangelism Day's <a href="http://ied.gospelcom.net/church-site-design.php" rel="nofollow">church website design</a> self-assessment tool, we try to encourage churches to present themselves (and see themselves) as a people, family, friends you haven't met yet.

What a great link to Missional Church. I never saw anything with such a comprehensive list of thoughts and ideas regarding being missional. It is very confirming to what our small leadership team here feels we are being called to. I am both excited about and anticipatory of how God will use this as a transformational agent in our greater fellowship here at Immanuel. I believe God's plan is marraige, not divorce. Marraige involves and transforms two bodies. Divorce separates them and often causes woundedness and bitterness. We believe that somehow the Spirit is seeking to marry the 'attractional' and 'missional' churches in a way that will honor Him. Wow! What a great link to Missional Church.
