Jay's new E

Some hoped for outcomes that I seek for my personal ministry setting are:
1. To impart a working definition of missional philosophy to my staff and
lay leadership teams.
2. To see that working definition begin to change the way that these
leadership teams approach their diverse ministries from a seminal
standpoint.
3. To begin to see the fruit of missional philosophy at work in the lives of
people in my congregation, particularly the leadership of the church.
4. To begin to see programs that are non-missional being phased out.
5. To begin to see programs that are missional being created and
implemented.
6. To be a part of a true community with my fellow cohort members in order
to receive support, discernment and communication about carrying out
missional philosophy.

Some indicators along the way would be:
1. To begin to hear a change in language on the part of my leadership teams
away from non-missional, program-based ministry speech and toward holistic,
missional speech.
2. To begin to hear healthy evaluative questions from my leadership teams in
regard to their ministry situations.
3. To hear from my leaders the perceived need of doing away with
non-missional programs and creating and implementing missional programs.
4. To give to and receive from my cohort members perceived discernment and
support in leading my church into missional philosophy
