Re-imagine Church
Go away and design a middle worship zone for your church.
Don’t think outside the box... know there is no box!
‘So what if the boundary were complex, had many layers of varying materials, were an entire zone in itself? Supposing all we do as church is actually inside this zone, and the real inside is something else? Supposing church were the intermediate condition rather than the point of arrival?’
