The Emergent Group

• The Emergent Group consists about 90% of the US population in 2019

They are digital natives (”Born with a Silver Mouse in Your Hand”) or

early adopters.

• Technology is not just a means to communicate, means relationship.

• This group represents the most of “Nones” and “Dones”.

“It is no longer its size, but the cultural

competencies it uses to enlist the early-adopters

from its community, who thrive in the digital

culture, and eventually grow with them into a

faith community.

The practical competencies help congregations

grow beyond the tipping point into viral

development.”

What is the tipping point in today's ministry?

• How much authority are the churches in Manhattan willing to give to this group

when they ask to be in charge of re-organizing the church, honoring just some

of its essential values?

• What new relationships should we build when this group wants to start a

satellite church out of your own organization, which is required to be inter-

independent?

• How will the churches in Manhattan manage conflicts and issues due to

generational dynamics and cultural diversity?

Opportunity Challenges

Frightened by the rapidly growing diversified spiritual flux introducing various

forms of new community life, this group re-engineers or re-organizes the exiting

dogmatic religious spirituality so that it becomes more favorable religious choice

in the postmodern culture.

Envision who will be your first twelve?


• Narrowing-down factors

• A critical question to prepare for

yourself to answer
