If we are going to have churches where the community more fully reflects the character and ministry of Christ, we must understand the hidden power of culture.  Like gravity, the culture of a congregation can either pull people down to their base instincts or lift people up to their sacred potential.  We created culture an culture recreates us.

If we want to create a missional culture in the congregations we serve, we need to understand how the different elments of culture work and cultivate learning, healing, welcoming, liberating and thriving environments.
