Synopsis of Sessions

Session 1, A Tale of Two Gospels: 1 session This message contrasts what Dallas Willard has called "the gospel of sin management" with "the gospel of the kingdom." It presents a missional understanding of the gospel that has far-reaching transformative power for our churches and for individual Christians.

Session 2, Spiritual Formation in the Emerging Culture: 1- 2 sessions An excellent follow-up to "A Tale of Two Gospels," this presentation explores the idea of becoming "apprentices of Jesus." It presents disciple-making as the point of the Great Commission in a challenging and imaginative way.

Session 3 & 4. Five Theological Turnings: 2-5 sessions Many people think of "emerging church" as a matter of superficial style and form. But in reality, five profound - and sometimes disturbing - questions are being raised in the emergent conversation: What is the Theology? Is a Theory of Atonement the Center of the Gospel? How does the Bible function in a Post-Foundationalist Context? What is Christian Hope - both Within and Beyond History (Eschatology)? What Kind of God Do We Believe In? These questions are explored in ways that are accessible to both theologians and lay leaders - and are intended to stimulate honest and thoughtful dialogue, not argument.

Session 5, Public Worship as Spiritual Formation: 1 - 2 sessions This presentation explores such concepts as "ancient-future worship," the meaning of ritual, liturgy as group spiritual formation, and leadership as exposure to "masters of practice," to help leaders plan and lead public worship more effectively - with the goal of authentic spiritual formation in mind. (With more sessions, more experiential practice can be incorporated.)
