In this episode, Brian and Cory explore the second core element of Movement DNA (MDNA): Missional-Incarnational Impulse. This isn’t just about activity—it’s about posture, presence, and proximity.

​​In this episode, Brian and Cory discuss the evolution of the Kansas City Underground, focusing on the six elements of movement DNA (mDNA) that were developed by Alan Hirsch.

We explore the importance of paradigm shifts, the role of community, and the necessity of embodying the principles of disciple-making in everyday life. We take time to give you a high level introduction of (1) Jesus as Lord, (2) the missional incarnational impulse, (3) disciple-making ecosystems, (4) liminality and communitas (5) apostolic environments and (6) the need for organic systems that allow for growth and multiplication within the church.

In this episode, Brian and Corey break down the importance of identifying Persons of Peace—those spiritually open and relationally connected individuals who are key to multiplying the good news of Jesus.
