Advance

I recently had the privilege of going to an outstanding conference hosted by a group called Advance. They are a collective of like minded people who have a desire to see Jesus kingdom here and now. The conference was called work.church.nation and was really helpful for those who attended. The videos from the main sessions are available for download here.

Of particular interest were the sessions by Dr Ed Stetzer whose insight is really are worth listening to. He has been instrumental in developing the Gospel Project which is material that is currently being used by our KidsChurch teams. He also is president of LifeWay Research an organization that helps churches understand the culture and community in which they minister by providing research and statistics for them.
