This document models a seven-step journey whereby a church establishes specific ministries aimed at reaching the unchurched. In becoming a church for the unchurched, the church moves from separation to restoration, from incarceration to incarnation, from toleration to invitation, from isolation to identification, from alienation to participation, from assimilation to motivation, and from procrastination to transformation. The biblical foundations, plans, and practices lead the church forward in the journey. Following this journey at the United Methodist Temple Church in Clarksburg, West Virginia, worship has grown by fifty per cent and of new members received over half are new Christians. Eight new ministries have been formed. The church is located in a downtown area characterized by rapid decline and transition.
