7 Summers...what would you do?



The first step in any good plan is to frame the questions Can we identify the best catalysts for change... strengthening of family and neighborhood, dream incubators, dream teams, youth cells and empowering networks, business support, school and community partnerships? How do we create the support structure for that kind of vision in the church? Could parents and young adults be motivated to play their key part, and along what line? Are there many adults whose own calling and dreams would be fulfilled in this kind of movement? I think so.

Also, what dialog, brainstorming, and planning models would facilitate rapid development and implementation. How do we engage children and youth themselves into the imagining and planning process early and give this enough force to drive action?

Also, how do we enlarge the online conversation and idea-generating process? And if this vision (or something like it) is indeed vastly superior to where we are and where we seem to be going, isn't it worth it? Isn't it worth all the prioritization, thoughfulness, creativity, and sacrifice God may be asking?
