Community Exegesis: Where are you planted?

God has appointed us to live in certain places at certain times (Acts 17:26).  It’s reasonable to extend this to the church that you are connected with being planted in the neighborhood.

• Who are the unchurched in your community that your church could easily reach?
• Who are the unchurched, that your church could read with some effort?
• What would it take for your church to reach the “easily” and “some effort” group?
• What changes in philosophy, program, and structure would you need to make in your church to reach the “easily unchurched?”
• What might block your church from reaching the unchurched?
• Who has God brought to your attention that is unchurched?
• Would you feel comfortable inviting them to your church?
