I think a lot of the problems are revealed by this “Great Commission Resurgence”. Some of the SBC leaders believe that this institution is not “surging” ahead with the GC as its mission and purpose. But who or what is the institution? Who hasn’t been “surging”? Because in my little world I can name dozens of men, women, and churches that are surging forward with the GC as if their lives literally depended on it. Everything they do is to advance the Kingdom. So rather then a pie in the sky, nothing really concrete idea, we should begin listening to those ALREADY surging. Its time for new leaders, out with those who need a resurgence and in with those already doing the mission. Sounds harsh, but I would say the same thing if I were one of the leaders currently in the way.
