The Lost art of Discipleship -The Church Finding Community

Person: Jesus was a Politician and not a religious leader.


Thoughts:

G12 is successful when the society is a communal. That is the culture and people have so many things in common in their normal daily routines, Same factory located in one area, Same work time shift,Same mode of transport ion etc. That is why it is so successful in developing countries like Columbia, Kenya , Mexico. It becomes difficult, to apply all the practices of G12 in a more diverse and always mobile society as SO CAL.

However by finding COMMON interests, we can be able to thrive and grow and make the church become part of the community as an organic element- a movement from the grassroots - A SOCIAL MEDIA - "THE OBAMA EFFECT"


Idea:

• Obama has attracted a large crowd of people who were not in the political mainstream
• The campaign is built from the bottom up, not the top down- grassroots
  
• Focus on core issues of health care, employment, education and Social Security
