Hi,
"The Mennonite" magazine is conducting a poll on the term "missional" at
http://www.themennonite.org/
Right next to it is an article promoting the concept. (So, it is fair for me to
offer a counter opinion) The concepts are fine, it's just that those concepts
are not connected to the word for 74% of Mennonites (according to another
recent poll), and I would wager 100% of non-Mennonites. Don't we have enough of
a lack of communication with words that have meaning to us without making up
new ones devoid of meaning.
That is all I have to say.
Ray
