The following tracks will present part one on Monday and part two on Tuesday.
Redemption Groups - Mike Wilkerson & James Noriega
Mars Hill Church pastors have developed a biblical approach to dealing with addictions and past trauma. Redemption groups are based in the concept of God redeeming broken people back to His image through community-based learning environments.
Missional Community Groups - Caesar Kalinowski
A missional community is a committed core of believers who live out the mission together in a specific area or to a particular people group by demonstrating the gospel in tangible forms and declaring the gospel to others—both those who believe it and those who are being exposed to it. This community is led by a team to shepherd, equip and organize a community on mission. This group is the church throughout the week. They identify, equip and send out new men to lead missional communities. Missional Communities operate unlike a Bible study and more like a family, a missionary team, a band of servants and eager learners.
Pitfalls of Church Planting - Jeremy Erb & Shaun Garman
Two pastors from the Portland region describe the pitfalls experienced in church planting and the ways they applied the gospel to bring glory to God. Too many church planters launch a new work naively without counting the cost (Luke 14:28).
Seven Seasons of a Church Planter - Russ McKendry & Hunter Beaumont
Global Church Advancement (GCA) has developed the Seven Seasons of a Church Planter. Two experienced planters present an overview of the GCA seasons and apply real-life examples of how they applied to their church plants.
Q & A Panel - Hosted by Chris Swan, Monday's Panel: Brent Rood, Sam Ford, Scott Golike, Chris Mayfield
