The church must be like water--flexible, fluid, changeable. Liquid Church is a vision for how the church can embrace the liquid nature of culture rather than just scrambling to keep afloat while sailing over it.

Ward urges us to move away from the traditional understanding of church as a gathering of people meeting in one place at one time to a dynamic notion of church as a series of relationships and communications. In a "liquid" Church, membership is determined by participation and involvement. It is continually on the move, flowing in response to the Spirit and the gospel of Jesus, the imagination and creativity of its leaders, and the choices and experiences of its worshippers.
