Live Intentionally

If you’re a part of a attractional church (traditional or modern) I dare you to read The Tangible Kingdom. It will rock your world if you’re open to it.

Today we’re reviewing, discussing, and giving away a copy of AND: The Gathered and Scattered Church by Hugh Halter and Matt Smay.

Many churches these days are trying to appeal to people by highlighting what God can do for them. Is it possible to tell people what God can do for them without selling out God and turning him into a cosmic fairy godmother?

If our churches are going to reach self-centered consumers “where they’re at,” don’t we have to appeal to their selfish desires?

Today I’ll be blogging live from the first ever Cultivate Conference in Chicago over on the Christian Web Trends blog. Cultivate is being described as less of a conference (which tends to be a few people speaking and the vast majority sitting back and listening) and more of a series of “organized conversations” for participants to discuss issues related to church communications. Check it out if you’re interested.
