The previous post showed the 7 city sector silos that don’t interact with one another. This picture shows how the Church overlaps all the sectors. A quote from To Transform a City by Eric Swanson and Sam Williams explains the figure.

“The missional church sees itself as the people of God (a who) already deployed across all domains of culture. These life-place assignments have been made by a God who desires to plant the incarnational presence of his Son everywhere, because God so loves the world, not just the church. Whereas " doing church" builds the church silo (a what) in our first diagram, "being church" (as a who) in this diagram releases the church to impact the world— right where God's people already are.” P. 11

Eric will be with us October 1 to help us think about Transforming our community!
