From Planting to Movements
This Saturday I will be co-presenting a workshop at the Missional Community Leader Conference on moving:
From Planting to Movements: The Role of City Networks
The purpose of the workshop is to explore and narrarate the role of city networks in facilitating a movement from church planting to a movement resulting in city renewal. We will share from theory and practice in order to inspire and equip people to think beyond their own church plant into movement ministry.
I will post our workshop notes after the conference.
Eldering in a Decentralized Movement
Check out the great thinking and shared wisdom from Drew on eldering in a decentralized movement. Although it’s probably premature to call Kaleo a movement, the vision and movement DNA are certainly present. We are hopeful that similar DNA and vision are building in ACL to contribute to a movement in Austin.
