The Guide contains how-to-do-it advice on starting, developing and sustaining fresh expressions of church based on shared experiences.

They clearly are in a number of cases - on housing estates, among young people, in schools and in many other contexts. However, the term 'fresh expressions' is often used so widely that it includes almost any kind of new church initiative, such as splitting a Sunday morning congregation into two. In these cases, a 'fresh expression' is just something new for people who already attend church.
We think these initiatives should be welcomed, but they shouldn't be described as fresh expressions. Otherwise the label will become so broad that it means almost nothing. That is why in our definition we have put an emphasis on new forms of church that exist for people who are not currently part of the church.
