Fresh Expressions is an initiative of the Church of England and the Methodist Church. It has been going since September 2004. It aims to help Christians of any denomination think about ways of starting and growing fresh expressions of church in their area. A fresh expression is a form of church for our changing culture, established primarily for the benefit of people who are not yet members of any church.
- It will come into being through principles of listening, service, incarnational mission and making disciples.
- It will have the potential to become a mature expression of church shaped by the gospel and the enduring marks of the church and for its cultural context.
The Purpose of FXMK is to inspire and inform church members in Milton Keynes about fresh expressions and emerging forms of church; to provide training that deepens our understanding of mission in contemporary culture and equips people for pioneering ministry; to build networks which link entrepreneurs, projects, churches and denominations; and to offer support for those who are involved in fresh expressions and emerging forms of church.
