Most of us have an adverse reaction to change. After all, we work hard to create environments that are appealing to us. Why would we want to change them? Because we naturally resist change I want to build this philosophy of creative change into the value system of Process Church.
The reasons to have creative change as a main value are as endless as the discussion itself. God exhibits this kind of creativity all throughout history... starting in the beginning (pun intended).
There is also something incredibly invigorating about finding a creative way to use the abilities that God has placed in you. Too many churches have cookie cutter ministries that are created before there are people to fill them. Our philosophy will value people above specific ministries and will promote creativity as a means for helping our faith community to continually embrace new ways of doing ministry.
