These Questions were borrowed from Paul Dazet and New Hope Community in Boardman, OH. However, I thought that they were good questions. Questions that need to be considered as Oasis Life Journey continues to form (although she is only in the conception stages - vision stages of her life). Where is Oasis Life Journey? Well, it is currently located in a home on the Northeast side of Canton, OH the Home of the Football Hall Of Fame. If your interested in hearing more about it please continue to read the blog and post. So check out and consider the following questions.
What are the unique needs where God has placed us? in our city? in our neighborhood?
How are these needs reflected socially, economically, ethnically, environmentally, politically, and religiously?
What arena of our community is the furthest from the utopia that God wants to restore?
What burning issues are alive in the public's eye and brought to attention by the media?
What needs and opportunities do the industries specific to our area create?
What is the most significant change in our community in the last decade, and what need does this create?
What are the largest community events, and what needs or opportunities do they create?
Because of our specific location, what solution could we provide that no other church does?
How would we describe the "atmosphere of lostness" in our community?
What is the creation story of our particular community, and what insight does this afford?
Does the history of our community bring to light any spiritual strongholds?
What one positive change in our community would have the most dramatic effect in people's lives?
Questions are from the book "Church Unique" by Will Mancini
