Moving Ahead to Spiritual Health Resources for Congregations in Crisis
The Church is supposed to welcome the broken...
not to be broken.
How it began
As I began to encounter more and more people who joined our church who had been wounded by churches, and sometimes their leaders, I began to see our church as a M*A*S*H Unit (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital) for the emotionally and spiritually wounded.
A M*A*S*H unit was designed to be as near to the front lines of a battle as safely possible in order to minimize the time between trauma and treatment. The wounded soldiers were triaged, treated, and, if possible, sent back to the fight as quickly as possible.
Ponder the potential impact of the church if it acted more like a hospital for the broken and less like a country club for the chosen.
As church leaders, we are on the battle field of the lives of our parishioners. They fight every day for their families, for love, for worth, and for identity. The Church is called to welcome the broken and empower them with gospel truth in order to equip them for these challenges.
What good does it do our parishioners if some of our churches are in more disarray than they are?
Whether your congregation is simply in need of fresh strategy or you are at a crisis point, M*A*S*H Church Consulting offers tools to help clergy and lay-leaders live fully into Gods call on their lives.
