當我們站在「未來教會」的門口，所看見的不再是一間間封閉的教堂，而是一座座「橋」——連結不同信仰、文化、族群、產業、世代的橋。

正如教宗方濟各所強調：「教會應當築橋，而不是築牆。」在這個AI時代、全球關稅戰爭、地緣政治與跨國價值觀劇烈碰撞的十字路口，宣教的第一步，已不再只是講道，而是「先打開門，先交朋友」。

牧者與領袖：你所看的決定你所走的

1. 宣教不是攻佔，而是相遇

未來的宣教，不再只是把人「帶進教會」，而是教會「走出去」，走進人群、城市、科技場域與政策討論。宣教是進入人的故事，而不是改寫人的文化。

2. 不是宗派思維，而是全球聯盟思維

面對世界各地的變動，領袖若仍侷限於「我們教會、我們國家」的眼光，將錯失上帝在全球行動中的召命。未來的牧者需要具備全球視野，看見教會與科技、國際政策、產業結構的連動關係。

3. 不是小確幸，而是大格局

眼光決定你牧養的是一個「會眾」，還是一個「世代」；心胸決定你建造的是一間「教會」，還是一座「橋樑」。

未來的領袖不能只關心會堂中的人數，更要關注世界舞台上的發聲。你不是牧一間教會，而是在牧一個文化潮流的轉變。

宣教，要敢於先與世界成為朋友

• 當AI生成的世界觀開始塑造年輕人的價值觀，牧者能否與AI對話？

• 當各國因關稅與能源政策緊張，牧者能否看見其中的國際宣教契機？

• 當世界在尋找「信任的力量」，牧者能否代表一種願意聆聽與連結的福音態度？

結語：未來教會的關鍵角色——和平的設計者、世界的對話者、真理的橋樑建造者

Standing at the Threshold of the “Future Church”:

We no longer see enclosed sanctuaries, but bridges—bridges that connect faiths, cultures, generations, industries, and societies.

As Pope Francis emphasized, “The Church must build bridges, not walls.” In this era of AI, global tariff conflicts, geopolitical tensions, and clashing transnational values, the first step of mission is no longer merely preaching—it begins with opening the door and making friends.

To Pastors and Leaders: What You See Determines Where You Go

1. Mission is not about conquering, but encountering

Future missions will not be limited to bringing people into the church, but rather leading the church outward—into the people’s stories, cities, technological spaces, and policy conversations. Mission is about entering people’s lives, not overwriting their cultures.

2. From denominational thinking to global alliance vision

In a rapidly shifting world, leaders who remain confined to “our church, our country” risk missing God’s call in His global movement. Future church leaders must cultivate a global perspective—recognizing the church’s interconnectedness with technology, international policy, and industrial transformation.

3. Not small comforts, but grand vision

Your vision determines whether you are shepherding a congregation or shaping a generation. Your heart determines whether you’re building a church or constructing a bridge.

The future leader cannot merely count those in the pews—they must amplify the Church’s voice on the world stage. You are not pastoring a building; you are shepherding a cultural shift.

Missions Today Must Begin with Friendship to the World

• When AI-generated worldviews begin shaping the values of the next generation, can pastors engage in meaningful dialogue with AI?

• When nations clash over tariffs and energy policy, can pastors discern the emerging opportunities for global mission?

• When the world longs for trustworthy leadership, can pastors embody a gospel posture of listening and connection?

Conclusion:

The Future Church must rise as Designers of Peace, Global Conversationalists, and Bridge-Builders of Truth.
