This is so so so good. Q Ideas has done well at naming similar vertical domains that they call "cultural channels." I love that, but this takes it a step further and clarifies even more. Great stuff.
Good thinking here, David. Both ageless and this-moment truths. The mindsets you identify, like the siloing of the church and the over-centrality of a few hours on Sunday mornings are so strong they are hard to overcome even when recognized. We are making much of the call of Jeremiah 29:7 as a reminder that our role is to bless our community and trust God for the church. But, we have to constantly work to do it or get pulled back by the gravity of old ways.
Well said, David. As you say--hard to overcome even when recognized--which I think is why Ed Stetzer's quote rang so true to so many.
"Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.” - Jeremiah 29:7. Amen and Amen

Good to hear of the Q cultural channels concept.
