Abstract
This chapter examines the theological significance of the split that has occurred between the church's congregations and their agencies (e.g. welfare, education) from the late twentieth century. In a series of 6 theses the chapter argues for a more integrated account of the relationship between church and agency in order to provide a more robust engagement and mission in an increasingly secular environment.
