Approaching Evangelism: Salt & Light
Tuesday, January 13, 2009, 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM
Quarterly event for church planters, pastors, and their teams
As Christians, our primary ministry calling is to bring the gospel to the broken culture. But, sadly, as pastors, church planters, and church leaders we can lose touch with this call while navigating the other demands of local church ministry. Throughout the history of the church we have seen movements that have reacted to this issue by becoming wholly focused either on making the gospel attractive to the culture or through incarnating the gospel within the culture. Does there have to be an either/or response to our call? How can we keep personal evangelism a priority for ourselves and our congregations while shaping a church culture that expresses an attractional facet of the gospel?
Our teachers for the first session focusing on The Shape of an Attractional Culture will be Darrin Patrick , Lead Pastor for The Journey , and Jonathan McIntosh , Teaching and Hanley Rd. Campus pastor for The Journey.
Our teacher for the afternoon session focusing on Jesus-Style Evangelism will be pastor, teacher, and author Jerram Barrs , Professor of Christian Studies and Contemporary Culture and Resident Scholar of the Francis A. Schaeffer Institute at Covenant Theological Seminary, St. Louis, MO.
