Many churches have become 'places where' things happen. However, Jesus' intention for his disciples was to be a 'people who' embodied the gospel. This project identifies the dominant scripts guiding many congregations, suggesting an alternative script including being a contrast society, participating in the mission dei, living as disciples, and understanding ourselves as 'family members' in the household of God. Through two case studies, the author examines how the development of cross-cultural relationships helps provide the embodiment of a contrast society for disicples within a congregational community, pointing towards how others may help move their congregations into deeper discipleship.
