Treasure in Clay Jars: Patterns in Missional FaithfulnessIf you saw a missional church, what would it look like? What patterns of behavior and practice would you find there?

If you saw a missional church, what would it look like? What patterns of behavior and practice would you find there?

Building on the ground laid by the book Missional Church: A Vision for the Sending of the Church in North America (Darrell Guder et al. 1998), Treasure in Clay Jars centers on case studies of nine missional congregations from across North America that are diverse in their denominational affiliations, worship styles, political stances, and socioeconomic backgrounds. The book explores eight concrete "patterns" common to these churches. Although the patterns may be different in each setting, they can be recognized in any congregation seeking to participate in God's mission in the world.

The team that authored this book believes that "missional" says something not so much about the activities of the church as its character: "The church does not exist for itself, but for participation in God's mission of reconciliation. . . . Mission is the character of the church in whatever context it exists." The congregations studied here are "clay jars," but each carries in its witness a remarkable treasure that points to God's power and purposes.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Review – Effective Glow & Smooth Skin Treatment
Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% toner. It helps exfoliate the skin and makes it look smoother, brighter, and more even over time. After regular use, my skin feels softer and looks more refreshed. It is also very affordable compared to many other skincare products, and a little goes a long way. The bottle lasts a long time, which makes it good value. However, it can be a bit strong for sensitive skin, so it’s important to start slowly and not overuse it. Also, sunscreen is important because it can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Overall, it is a very effective exfoliating toner and a great addition to a skincare routine if used correctly.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid has become one of my favorite skincare products. It makes my skin feel smoother, brighter, and much softer after consistent use. I’ve noticed improvement in dullness, rough texture, and even areas like my neck and scalp. A little goes a long way, and the bottle lasts forever for the price. I also love that it’s multi-use and can be used on more than just the face. You do have to be careful not to overuse it because it’s strong, but when used properly it gives amazing results. Such a great affordable skincare staple!

this is such a good product! i love it!!
Size: 8.11 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
i love this toner so much!! it has helped with my skin tremendously. if you are on the fence about it, just get it! its good for sensitive skin as well. i used to have those unexplainable bumps on my forehead for over a year but now they're gone and they were gone within one week of using it, it is such a good product!! i use it once every day at night but i have also heard people use it once or twice a week. this toner is also really good for dark armpits, BO or face, back and chest acne. its fragrance-free and the bottle size is pretty big and will last awhile. Highly recommend, 10 out of 10!

I've been using it for my acne on my side arm, I've been applying it everyday after I shower and I've noticed a big difference. It's less red and little to no acne on my right side.

The ordinary Glycolic acid 7%

The Ordinary glycolic acid is really good — it made my skin smoother, brighter, and helped with dark spots without costing too much,easy to use , Just make sure to use sunscreen during the day since glycolic acid can make skin more sensitive to the sun.
