Are You Apostolic?
There has been much talk recently (at least in the Missional conversation) about the apostolic. It’s function is a critical and needed piece to reforming the church into what it is supposed to be in the world, a beautiful and radiant bride. A community of followers who actually look and act like Jesus. Unfortunately, like much of what happens in the church (particularly with the American, commercialized, hyper-entrepreneurial version) it looks like it may soon be overdone. Similar to how the term “missional” has grown to mean almost everything and almost nothing, it appears that the term “apostolic” may quickly move from the arena of being overly stigmatized to over-used (which usually translates to misused).
