So What’s In It For Me?

Self-interest guides our buying and selling. When it comes to buying shoes or haggling over a car,
“So, what’s in it for me?” helps evaluate possible purchases. But is this a good question when it
comes to church participation?
In North America, congregations often function as a provider of
religious goods and services. “Church” has become a consumable good – a place we go to
receive something – rather than a sent and sending community, a missionary people.

What do we do with a “So, what’s in it for me?” church?

Consumed is a two-month journey for church leaders who want to think about and experiment
with post-consumer and post-attractional church practices. The journey is built around two
teaching days and two half-days for reflection and conversation.
