Missional Church

There's been a lot of discussion (at least among pastors and church planters) over the past few years about missional church.  What is it?  How is it different from traditional church?  Can a traditional church be "missional"?  What does a missional church look like?  What makes a missional church missional?  Is "missional" just a buzz word that will fade into oblivion in a year or two?

All of these are good questions that deserve to be answered, though I'm not sure I am qualified to give all the answers.  I saw a video today at a Live Sent/reSymbol seminar in Orlando that I thought captured the heart of what a missional church is.  In fact, I thought the video was brilliant.  So, I figured I should pass it along to you and let you watch for yourselves.  The video was made by Jeff Maguire and can be found at the website sayingitsimply.net.  Let me know what you think.
Blessings,
Shiloh
