Gospel Community Conference

Wednesday, September 08, 2010, 6:30 PM - Thursday, September 09, 2010, 4:30 PM

Website: http://www.thegospelcommunity.org

The context is the religious South. Religion is a way of life, a family heritage, a personal statistic, but not the Gospel. In this context, mission is a project, a program, but not life. We volunteer a portion of our time and resources to go on mission for a period of time. So a piece of our spiritual community includes mission when we are able to fit it in. It is our desire to retake the South through the biblical idea of missional community, the idea that life does not just include some missional activities, our life is about the mission of the Gospel. It is our desire to hold a regional event that will not only challenge and inspire the church planter, pastor, elder, member, small group leader, etc., with the biblical notion of a life immersed in mission, but to equip them by putting tools and networking opportunities in their hands with ongoing encouragement to begin to make it happen in their particular context.

We are so excited about this opportunity to gather together as fellow brothers and sisters in Christ for the intent purpose of encouraging the proliferation of the Gospel in the South. Those of us who live and serve here understand the unique challenges to the Gospel in the religious South. It turns out that these challenges really are not that new or unique. We believe that the Bible speaks very specifically to the struggle of our context. So we have assembled pastors and resources from the South and beyond to challenge, encourage, and equip you to lead in your context for the glory of God. This conference is for any believer regardless of your vocation. We have tried to make this as accessible as possible so please do your best to join us on September 8-9 in North Alabama as we serve together for the Gospel in Community in the South.
