Thanks for Part 1. I've been looking to get this book, but wasn't sure if it would be worth it. Just reading this alone makes me want to get it now. I look forward to Part 2 and more, especially his take on participatory Trinitarian ecclesiology.
Thanks dude.

It makes me hopeful to read this report; perhaps a bit envious as well, but mainly hopeful. Thanks for opening a window to this for those of us who couldn't be there.

Great post, Ben. Always challenging (and inviting :) ) stuff.
My question, and perhaps struggle, is how we engage people in this manner without coming across as arrogant, aloof, or controlling. I understand and have implemented what you are saying here, but in a culture where most Christians (at least church-ified ones) see themselves as equals, it is difficult to convey this message without pushing some buttons.
Any tips for us who willingly acknowledge our following after you? Hope you're well, brother.

Thanks for the heads up about next April. I've already signed up for the Missio Alliance news emails. I still have your card from the Missional Learning Commons and plan on giving you a call in the near future. Talk with you soon.

Thanks for the recap. As one who wanted to be there, but couldn't, I appreciate this. Hope to be there again next year.

Awesome. I'd love to know more, especially as we're looking to formulate a model for theological/missional/ecclesiological education here in the Syracuse area. And by "we" I mean a very small handful of us who see the desperate need for this type of thing. Keep up the great work.

Great post, JR. It makes sense as we continue to push deeper and broader into this whole missional conversation. Trying to rethink the gospel and its implications is something we've been working on in our community. You are absolutely right when you wonder about people being ready for this conversation. Keep up all the good work.

Congrats! As the father of two little girls, let me say, it will change you in ways you'd never imagine. Enjoy yourselves.
