Every church is driven by something.
There is a guiding force, a controlling assumption, a directing conviction behind everything that happens. It may be unspoken. It may be unknown to many. But it is there, influencing every aspect of a church's life. Some churches are driven by their tradition, by a personality, by concerns about finances, by the programs they organize, by their desires for the building, by a need to have many events, or by a focus to provide seekers with what they want.
