Missional Church Planting in Louisville

Sunday May 10, 2009   ~   3 Comments

missional-cp-kybc.png
Tomorrow and Tuesday I'll be speaking at the Missional Church Planting Conference at Sojourn Community Church at an event sponsored by the Kentucky Baptist Convention and Campbellsville University. It includes a host of other great speakers and lasts for four days, so be sure to check out the full info here.

I have to say that I am genuinely excited about the gospel-centered, missional approach to church planting that we're seeing in more and more parts of my own tribe. i wish such a "missional church planting" focus would be welcome in more places, but, for now, I will celebrate it when it is welcomed. So, thanks Sojourn Church, Campbellsville University, and the KBC for making this event possible.

If you're near Louisville you should check out the Missional Church Planting Conference running Monday through Thursday (May 11-14).

Details below from their web page:

Where? Sojourn Community Church 930 Mary Street Louisville, KY 40204


When?
Monday-Tuesday: 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Monday Dinner/Q & A with Ed Stetzer: 6:00 p.m.
Wednesday-Thursday: 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

What?
Is God calling you to plant a church? Are you already involved in a church plant? Are you interested in church growth processes and principles? Join us for a four-day conference that will challenge, encourage and prepare you for this great calling.

On Monday and Tuesday, we'll learn from Dr. Ed Stetzer as he covers a variety of key topics, such as planting models, teams, systems and much more. All participants will also have some Q&A time with Stetzer at a special Monday evening dinner.

On Wednesday and Thursday, you'll gain in-depth insights from four church planting experts, along with breakout sessions and personal testimonies from High Impact church planters in Kentucky. Add in some worship and fellowship, and you've got what we believe will be a highlight in your journey to explore or dig deeper into church planting.

Is there non-missional church planting? If so I might like to try that. It sounds a whole lot easier than this missional stuff. :)

@Doug -- gee, we oughta give that a try! It DOES sound easier! ;)

Brother Ed, I tell you what, we Sojourners just love the KBC. Aren't they great? Most supportive state convention in the nation! :)

Great stuff today. Thanks for your insightful answer to my question about dealing with issues of sexuality in our culture in a missional church planting context. It gave me fuel and got me thinking how we develop a robust and strong biblical answer to a major question our culture is asking.
