The Good Soil Process: A Strategic Missional Process for American Institutional Churches

Keith Tilley

Abstract

claim that American institutional churches need to be oriented around missional, relational, and incarnational practices in order effectively to incarnate and communicate the Gospel of Jesus Christ. One way to accomplish this is by developing a simple, strategic missional process which seeks to foster paradigm change at a grassroots, local level through training which uses language, concepts and images that resonate culturally with a particular region or congregation.
