Reproducing Leaders at All Levels
Reproducing Leaders at All Levels to Create a Missional Church Movement
This year, at the 2012 Exponential Conference, we have invited Michael
Frost, internationally recognized missiologist, to speak on the subject
of mission in the context of leadership development. The pre-conference event
will give you the opportunity to practically apply missional thinking
to raising up apprentices, leaders, staff and church planters who bleed
the Jesus Mission.
Along with Michael Frost, we will have our very own Dave and Jon Ferguson, co-authors of Exponential and co-founders of Community Christian Church and NewThing, sharing their story and practical skills on how to reproduce leaders at all levels. You will also get a chance to hear from Eric Metcalf, Director of NewThing; Carter Moss, COMMUNITY's Small Groups Champion and many other leaders who have lived out the principles talked about in Exponential.

The Exponential Church Practicum
NewThing is once again offering The Exponential Church Practicum on March 5 – March 6, 2012 in Chicago, $219 per person.
Learn How to Be a Reproducing Church!
If
you would like to see your church experience exponential growth, this
is for you! The Exponential Church Practicum will help you and your team
develop a step-by-step strategic plan for how to make it a reality!
This intensive workshop is designed to provide direction for you and
your entire leadership team.
Who Should Attend?
The
Practicum is designed to help your staff formulate goals and action
items to begin the reproducing church process. To get the most out of
your experience, we recommend attending with your key staff leadership
team including the Senior Pastor.
"If
we want to solve Jesus' mission problem of going to
'Jerusalem...Judea...Samaria...to the ends of the earth,' we are going
to have to find a new kind of math and a new way to count that results
in rapid reproduction. That new math is exponential. The new way to
count is counting on you and your friends to start a missional church
movement."
Dave Ferguson, Exponential - how you and your friends can start a missional church movement
