Our world needs us to be open to the Spirit of God as he leads us into creative, innovative forms of service. Just as the early church was led by God to translate the mission of Christ into new forms and cultures so as we emerge from the global pandemic we need to be ready to be Spirit-filled mission entrepreneurs.
How can we creatively share the love of Jesus in a post-pandemic reality, and so be equipped to do what the write of Hebrews said, to provoke one another to love and good deeds?

How do we sing the songs of Zion while sitting on the banks of the river in Babylon? Israel captives asked this question thousands of years ago as exiles and foreigners in a land they didn’t recognize or like. The question is a good and relevant one for us in todays world. How do we announce the news of God’s coming Kingdom to a culture that seems oblivious, uninterested and opposed to the message?
Danielle has found loads of practical hope in the instructions and example of Paul as he spread the Good News in foreign and even hostile cultures. Using one particular example we will explore how we can engage our culture in genuine and relevant ways without giving into the temptation of assimilation or the alluring safety of defensive separation. It’s time to sing again.
We invited our main summit speakers to share in some intimate leadership discussions, drawing on their experiences to bring some leadership truths and practical perspectives in ministry. Available to watch on-demand.
