Driven by the People

The new things happening
a change in the way of church
authentic to the calling
not guided by the leaders
faithful to his command
to go to the nations
making disciples, not members

Needing the pastors
the committees, the structures
to give way to passion
the calling of the Spirit
to let go of direction
the people leading the way
no longer working
direction from above
