This is important...

In our disciples making disciples movement it is important for us that we teach a correct understanding of the Church.

The Church is the gathered and scattered Body of Christ.

Our main thrust is not to have more people in the gathering - that is not our charge. Our charge in that in our scattering we will bring more people into the kingdom.

Reaching people for our gathering is not our goal. Scattering to reach people for Christ is.
