Three Theses I've drawn out of “Called forward together in Christ for the sake of the world”

Three Theses from “Called forward together in Christ for the sake of the world
1. The ELCA will be a healthy and self-aware Church, engaged with society in word and deed, where congregations reflect the communities they are in.
2. Our focus will be on Word and Sacrament, making followers of Christ who lead inside and outside the Church, engaging young people, and tackling the troubles of the world.

3. This will only come about if we have leadership of the whole Church coming from the whole Church and we use God’s gifts to fit God’s vision.
