Graham Cray reflects on the story of St Paul's Café Church.
Fresh expressions of church develop one step at a time. Long term blueprints don't drop out of the sky! First the nursery contacts, then the Earlybird cafe, then Café Church.
The, as yet, unanswered questions, like how to develop a depth of discipleship in this sort of monthly congregation, will unfold in the same way, as long as St. Paul's stays faithful to what it has learned already.
Perhaps the most fascinating question is how will Café Church help to reshape St Paul's in the future?
