Consumer Church
Church is seen as a dispenser of religious goods and services. People come to church to be fed, to have their needs met through quality programs, and to have the professionals teach their children.
"I got to Church"

Missional Church
Church is seen as a body of people sent on a mission who gather in community, for worship, encouragement, and teaching from the Word that supplements what they are feeding themselves throughout the week.
"I am the Church"

It is my desire that we become a Missional Church.
