Churches being recast as intentional communities
Thursday, January 17th, 2008An article in The Walton Sun from Santa Rosa Beach, Florida describes how a local church is thriving after recasting itself as an intentional community:
"We haven't set any growth records but certainly haven't set out to do so. We have between 60 and 100 each week in worship. From a spiritual perspective, the church is doing quite well as we try to re-imagine church as an intentional community that seeks only to worship God, follow Christ and serve the world," he said.
Its not clear exactly what this means in practice but it is interesting to see the concept taken on. I see many a reference online to the growing number of Christians seeking to create intentional community but mostly in blogs and not in the news.
