Breakout 3: The Tribal Gap
Tribes are not only genetic, they are cultural, geographical, economic, and for our purposes, theological. It is only natural to feel the most comfortable with others who think, look, talk, eat, and play just like you in places that are familiar. One only need to read the exciting and tumultuous narrative The Acts of the Apostles to see that the Gospel challenges these tribal tendencies. The early church faced some very painful transitions and often they stubbornly resisted such changes. Disciple making is meant for all peoples, the gospel is to be spread to every person and culture, regardless of tribal differences. The Disciple Making Movement is required to break out of its cultural compartments and be as intentional as the Holy Spirit was to send Peter to the house of Cornelius, and Paul to the lakeside in Philippi. We tend to be tribal in our theology, with regard to race, gender, language, and nations. If we plan to make disciples and create movements in the United States and beyond, we must intentionally close the gap. No matter your tribal affiliations, join the conversation.
