Life Groups: Resource Management

Members Recast: Judas Iscariots and No-Talents
Most Life Groups are not Christian fellowships. They are groups of people managed for their resources by church leadership teams. The unsaved are often encouraged to join these groups where salvation is secondary, if it is that high on the list at all. The membership drives are conducted for any and all so long as they’ll be manageable for resources. That is the impetus behind community outreach projects, and the reason an emphasis is on the surrounding community instead of focusing on the body of Christ, the Church, as a separate entity. That sort of divisiveness would preclude growth as defined in corporate business models.
