Church and Mission 11/9-Ministry in a network society

Today in class I finally figured out what makes community, church, and ministry so hard in the LA context. Life in LA is a clear example of what it means to be in a network society. Everyone is spread out and the relationships are not all located in one physical space. This makes it more difficult to do centralized ministry. It is better to decentralize and release people to do ministry wherever their networks are found.
