The Church should stop pretending the old missionary model still works

Wonder why the Church struggles to respond to contemporary challenges effectively? It is trapped in an old missionary model. When missionaries came, they established four main pillars of mission — the Church, the school, the hospital,  and the farm. These were the “contemporary” challenges then, and the structures they built were fitting. But the Church has maintained that old model as if it were still contemporary.  Anchoring present day mission on the missionary model mothers irrelevance.
