Subject: Noteworthy: Exponential Conference Available Live - Do You Want To Watch Together?
Staff/Elders:
Both Pastor Ken and Buc are headed to the Exponential Conference 4/23-25. It’s a big year… Jim Putman will be there debuting his new discipleship book. Many of the biggest names in discipleship will be joining him.
The conference will be webcast live. I am planning to watch. Do any of you have a desire to watch together? If so I could set something up. Let me know if you are interested. If there are enough people I will set something up.

Shift 1 – From Reaching to Making
DiscipleShift occurs when church leaders move away from only reaching people and toward relational disciple making that apprentices people in the ways of Jesus.

Shift 2 – From Teaching to Modeling (from Leading to being Led)
DiscipleShift occurs when church leaders move away from leading and toward being led by Jesus. Because leaders reproduce who they are, if we want to make strong, mature disciples, then we as leaders must first be strong, mature disciples.

Shift 3 – From Attending to Participating
DiscipleShift occurs when church leaders shift their role from teaching to modeling, making disciples like Jesus did. Jesus’ strategy for influencing the world was apprenticing and equipping 12 disciples—as He modeled faith, service and leadership—and then commission these disciples to do the same with their lives.
1245pm-215pm: Session 6
Jo Saxton
Chris Hodges
Wayne Cordeiro
230pm-300pm: Session 7a
Jeff Vanderstelt
Shift 4 – From Connecting to Transforming
DiscipleShift occurs when we as leaders move away from assimilating people into programs and move toward creating missional communities. Communities created around a cause foster environments of encouragement, accountability and risk taking where disciple making happens best.
300pm-330pm: Session 7b
Brandon Hatmaker
4pm-530pm: Session 8

Shift 5 – From Attracting to Deploying
DiscipleShift occurs when leaders shift their focus from drawing in masses of people to leading churches who send equipped Christ followers to the masses. Our scorecards must change from simply counting the number of people we attract to counting the number of people we deploy.
915am-945am: Session 9b
