God’s order and the church
- Order is not a cage, it’s a canvas.
- God’s design allows creativity, relationship and mission to flourish.
- When boundaries align with purpose, the church reflects God’s beauty.
- Church is a family.
- Family language in Scripture emphasizes belonging and care.
- The church grows strong when love and accountability coexist.
- Order helps families to flourish.
- Roles and rhythms protect unity and maturity.
- Order allows space for grace, growth and shared responsibility.
- Order provides stability and impact.
- Structure creates sustainability for long-term ministry.
- Impact comes when God’s people move together in purpose and peace.
When we look back at the 20th century, it won’t be a book or a conference that will stand out, but a conversation.
-Walker Percy
