Almost every teacher or professor I have ever had said that there are no wrong questions. Well maybe they said there is no such thing as a stupid question or dumb question....stupid and dumb have become less politically correct in recent years so I imagine most now use wrong...probably not it's still ok to call a question stupid just not a person.....anyway.
I used to think that statement was something they told you to say in "teacher school" because it made your students feel more comfortable. After all, we all knew someone who would ask a stupid question (I think I was that someone most of the time) like "what is the homework assignment" when it was 2 minutes to class ending and the teacher had gotten way off track....
Well here is the deal, when it comes to this whole two campus thing, there really are no wrong, stupid, or dumb questions. Everyone looks at things from their location in their Christian journey, we aren't all in the same location, thus we see things different, which is good. So any question is a good question.
So you may ask, where do I get my questions answered....well the answer is, if you're reading this, you have found the question asking place - just comment on a post, and we will get you an answer.
I can't promise you will like all the answers, but I can promise we will respond to you..
so looks like the teachers are correct, there is no such thing as a wrong, stupid or dumb question...ask away my friends.

Tom,
Is the missiology of the South Campus going to change somewhat to more of reaching out to the surrounding neighorhoods and more of a younger (18-35)crowd of "lost"?
If so, what are the plans to involve the congregation in the "local missions work" and how?
Joe, good question - the answer is a bit complicated. Missiology is the same - we are here to share Christ with our community and beyond - that includes the community around the church building whether that is the north or south campus, and the community around those that attend Rejoice. The south campus may give us a few more closer neighbors, but I pray we do this from both campuses.
As for reaching specifically to an age group at the south campus, I would say not specifically targeted that way, but it may look like that as our music program may appeal to that age range more than others.
As for our methods to involve the congregation in outreach to the community, we will be doing several "events" of reaching into the surrounding neighborhoods to let them know we are coming and interested in them. Also, in home small groups will be a big focus which we will endeavor to make more missional and unified after the launch of the campus.
Hope this answers your questions…
