Belonging before believing: The 7 C's of how to connect your community with your church

In this pioneering work I have not set out to accomplish a complete theology in regards to the growing spiritual phenomena of belonging before believing, but rather a modest introduction. Especially as there is much discussion going on, but there is not many written material available. In this presentation I do promote belonging before believing, rather than believing before belonging, as a more challenging perspective in regards to evangelical ministry in a post-Christendom society.
A missionary ecclesiology explores the nature of Christian spirituality’s, as it is incarnated in the church and as it is shaped by its mission in the world. It does not pretend to explain or describe the whole spectrum of Christian ecclesiology, but focuses on a specific dimension. The attention is mainly on how the church organises and interacts with the world when mission is the central focus.
