I returned last night from the National New Church Conference in Orlando, Florida. It may take a bit but will unpack:
- Conversations and dinners with Ed Stetzer (Stetzer don't just lurk, post a comment!), Bob Roberts Jr., Acts 29 guys. I received a preview copy of Breaking the Missional Code and...
Raising Money for your Church Plant...
Yesterday I met with 9 church planters here in San Diego. Admist the conversation, one guy told us how he raised $450,000 for the next five years. He got the idea from Funding Your Ministry: Whether You're Gifted or Not
His primary method was to approach local churches that would allow him to speak...

I found this post by the JollyBlogger to be an extremely interesting discussion around the flaws of systematics and singular perspectives rather than reading the whole of the Bible with perspectival lenses: [read my previous post on triperspectivalism]

I’ve been reading a book given to me by Dick Kaufman at Harbor. I’ve really enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone in ministry: The Heart of a Servant Leader: Letters from Jack Miller
Though he passed away in 1996, Jack Miller’s influence is still felt through the various ministries he...

My co-elder at Kaleo, David Fairchild writes an article, The Importance of Art When Engaging Non-believers.
I believe that Dr. Francis Schaeffer was right when he said that the best way to understand the basic world view of a period of history is by studying its art forms, and it is because of this observation...

Each of us has an area of strength that most greatly influences how we make decisions. Earlier, we said these three modes are Prophet, Priest or King. [read How Mutliperspectivalism shapes Church Leadership and how you staff a church]

Marketing Resources...
Lately, I’ve been reading a bunch from Seth Godin. Some of this thoughts are a bit unconventional, but I’ve enjoyed the contrast between (old method) interruption marketing vs. permission based marketing. That and his emphasis on creating a story around a product/company. If you haven’t...

Church Plant Media signed up with Ekklesia 360 in the Fall last year. They now are landing 2 new clients a week for our combined companies. Pretty sweet. I’m going to fly to Orlando to the 2006 National New Church Conference to support their booth. (I also get to hang-out with all my friends...

To contrast what type of a church we should plant, here is the contrast of what not to plant….hmmm…more tri-perspectivalism. Most churches error toward one of the perspectives; Normative, Situation or Existential. Normative relates to authority and concern with ‘right thinking’...

As I posted earlier, the influence of Keller/Harbor/Frame and tri-perspectivalism is far reaching. It should be the very worldview that we filter everything through, we looked at its influence in church leadership development and preaching. Now, here is a take on how it influences WHAT type of churches...

Good read at Church Marketing Sucks: What Web 2.0 Means for Your Church. [Again, this is why we created Ekklesia, Sermon Cloud, ChurchAgent and many more to come...]
What does web 2.0 look like inside the church? What happens when we apply the same web 2.0 attitudes to church marketing?
