Lets look at some more basics.
Spiritual Movements usually burst forth at the grass roots level and usually stop within the limitations of the corporate or institutional level.
Here are some of the obstacles that limit the average Church from succeeding at the grass roots level.
- Structural and staff maintenance costs and debt
- Institutional corporate and legal limitations
- Higher Fuel and food prices and lower wages
- Hierarchal Control
- Loss of Integrity
- More focus on assimilation (inside the walls) vs discipleship (outside the walls)
- Competition – Did I mention Control?
