When engaging missionally with new and existing communities the focus is often placed on finding a program or project to facilitate this. Although social enterprises, community programs, and projects are important, the role of growing participation, the dynamics of social networks, and the type, quality, and depth of relationship required for engagement and deep life-sharing are essential to consider. In this article I will discuss some important aspects of growing participation that are applicable to all communities and that can lead to deep life-sharing, the sharing of the gospel, and, in time, hopefully to redemption and transformation
