Abstract

The objective of the project leader in developing this research project is to provide a model for church ministry that will enable traditional churches to design future ministries that will continue to minister to traditional members as well as reach out to postmoderns in their community without creating disunity among the fellowship. The project leader seeks to target both traditional and postmodern members of all ages and lengths of membership that will result in a wide cross section from the congregation. This will enable a balanced approach to the understanding needed to properly evaluate past history, define current growth and allow for creative planning for the future. This model will address both the traditional and postmodern cultures each with its own unique needs and desires. The project leader wishes for both groups to grow numerically and spiritually within the church. The challenge will be to lead both generations to appreciate one another and to allow that appreciation to lead them to cooperating together in the spirit of unity. The desired outcome of this research project if for both traditional and postmodern members to understand each other's various needs and to be willing to accept ministries that will meet the needs of both groups within the same congregation and in the community. The project leader's purpose is to see traditional members become open to new ministries to postmoderns and for the postmoderns to see the value and importance of continued ministry to those who enjoy a more traditional form of ministry.
