Easy life?
Sometimes I think it would be easier to forget the changing/emerging situation that we're trying to do church in (here in London & worldwide!).
I mean wouldn't it be simpler just to carry on with the old ways - just work at getting them better? Certainly it would bring short term "success" in many places (or at least appear to!).
Isn't a better Sunday programme much less hassle than really trying to be missional?

But back to reality - its been interesting to have a few conversations and see stuff that illustrates the challenge of leaving behind the "Christendom" mindset. Both in terms of thinking about youth ministry stuff and wider.
Part of the tension is trying to work where we are - in a transitional period.

(I'm not sure this makes any sense - but it makes me feel better!)
