Your local church is uniquely gifted, situated, and qualified to perform kingdom mission in your particular community.As a pastor, I want to think about what that means for our local church. -Laura Tarro

Churches look all kinds of ways these days, and that’s okay. But churches exist to fit into the mission of the Kingdom of God, so how do you know if your church has embraced God’s Kingdom mission to the world? In this episode, pastor Laura Tarro,* talks about Scot McKnight’s bookKingdom Conspiracy: Returning to the Radical Mission of the Local Church. She shares some of McKnight’s markers for a church that embodies and lives out the kingdom mission of God in its local setting while also celebrating the unique differences and gifts of each person in the church.
