What is God's Spirit calling us to in the 21st Century?

After considerable consultation, testing, and prayer, the Future Directions Task Force finds most support for a simpler, sounder, and more integrated understanding of church.

Area church leaders and the General Board of the national church have approved this report in principle and commended to Area Churches for consideration before bringing it to Assembly 2016 for final decision. We continue to pray, receive feedback, refine details, and wait for national and area church delegates to respond at their annual meetings. If approved, a Transition Team would be appointed to implement this proposal.
