As a perspective, social innovation changes world problems into opportunities, changes people from circumstantial definitions into potential, and changes ourselves into agents of change with the mission and power to create a better world. As a process, social innovation applies to every aspect of our lives so that not only do we see the world differently, but we act different. We are different.Does this sound familiar? It should.But ye are a chosen generation, … a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light (1 Peter 2:9Links to an external site.).The gospel doesn’t only require that we act different, but it changes us, we become different.
