Evangelism

Congregational transformation defined

A working definition from the Conference on Congregational Transformation

Congregational Transformation is a spiritual, systemic and strategic journey traveled by a congregation urgently striving to realize what God has called it to be.

  • It is spiritual because transformation is about listening to God.
  • It is systemic because transformation is not about any particular ministry or program, but is about everything a congregation does.
  • It is strategic because transformation addresses challenge, change, and transitions through an intentional process.
  • And it is a journey because transformation is not an event, but a never-ending process to manifest that unique future to which God is calling.
