CHANGE IS INEVITABLE.

It is simply not an option.

The question related to change is not, 

“Will it happen?” but rather, 

“How will we handle it when it does?’

The sobering reality is the winds of change never stop shifting.

The challenge is that if we fail to adjust our sails,

we will stop moving in the right direction.

The church is no exception.

As guardians of what we think is sacred,

we tend to fight for the

TRADITIONS,

PROGRAMS,

LANGUAGE, and 

STYLE of a ministry

that worked in the past.

Too many churches lose influence with a generation because they make the mistake of championing what worked then,

at the expense of what works now.

Effective leaders know the difference.

They learn to draw a line of delineation between what should change and what should never change. In doing so, they hold their ministry with open hands and invite a generation behind them to start a new revolution.

It’s the kind of revolution that…

disrupts the status quo for the sake of the future

eliminates what’s working so something else can work better

challenges what is temporary to highlight what is timeless

confronts any theology that justifies mistreating others

rallies others to do something radical

JESUS MODELED A NEW REVOLUTION.

He OVERTURNED irrelevant traditions

He QUESTIONED the motives of religious leaders

He REPLACED outdated theology

He RALLIED people to love others radically

THIS GENERATION IS IN DESPERATE NEED OF THAT KIND OF REVOLUTION.

At OC20 you will be invited to make some radical changes

as you approach a new decade.

You will be surrounded by nearly 8000 leaders who tend to be.

avid learners of culture

innovative thought leaders

passionate believers of the Gospel

Most of them are dissatisfied with the status quo.

If you are as well, we hope you will join us.

LET’S START A NEW REVOLUTION.
