I read very interesting article about the Church Growth Movement in the 21st century.
In former decades, the goal of the Church Growth Movement and its leaders was to build megachurches for the stated purpose of reaching the lost and impacting the community for Christ. But now speakers suggested that the church is to "go global"; and, as we shall see, this does not mean sending out missionaries to preach the Gospel and establish local, indigenous churches. Rather, this new global approach entails using the resources of the church to change societies through effecting social, economic and political justice—in other words, to further "establish God's kingdom on earth."
