A Church Planting Bootcamp – and A Free Seminary Education

Here’s a couple of “heads-up.” Ecclesia Network has a church planters training gathering May 17. I’ll be participating along with many other veterans of missional church planting. I think this gathering is a really needed alternative to other “boot camps” which may focus extensively on doctrinal issues and matters of pragmatics. Here we’re focusing on the many issues surrounding preparing people to land teams and engage a context missionally (and of course there are theological issues here). If God so provides, I encourage you to join us. Go to the web site and contact Chris for more info.
I also want to let you know that we have a few openings still to fill in a scholarship program at Northern Seminary. We;’ve been working hard to develop a set of prepatory Masters degrees for missional ministry. If you’re 27 and under, had a 3.25 or better in undergrad, you would qualify for full funding in this particular program. Want to know more? E-mail me at dfitch@seminary.edu .
