Global Church Advancement (GCA) Conference – Day 2

January 29, 2008 by Alex Chediak

This morning I’ve been assigned to live-blog two Advanced-Track workshops. I should explain that there are three tracks of sessions represented here at the Global Church Advancement Church Planting Workshop.
Foundations Track – Establishing & strengthening vision, calling, mission, philosophy, values, styles, models, strategies and plans. This 15-session, 4.5 day training is “required” for those who have not yet gone to the field, and is highly recommended for anyone in need of revitalizing their church by revisiting all the “Foundations.”
Essentials Track – Developing & growing ministries of prayer, worship, preaching, discipleship, groups, outreach, mercy, leadership and more. This 15-session, 4.5 day training equips the church planter to grow and strengthen the church from its embryonic or infancy stage to a mature, multiplying stage.
Advanced Workshops – 28 specialized workshops covering a host of vital topics, ranging from a half-day to a full-day
At 9 AM I’ll be going to a session by Martin Ban called Gospel & Cultural Engagement. Then at 10:45 AM I’ll be at a session by Tom Nebel called “Evangelism Entropy.” I will not have attended part 1, so I’ll do my best.
Martin Ban – has 18 years of church planting and senior pastor experience. Martin is a graduate of Austin College and Westminster Theological Seminary. He has planted churches in the San Francisco Bay Area and Santa Fe, New Mexico. He is currently the Senior Pastor of Christ Church Santa Fe PCA. Martin and his wife Mari Anne have 5 children (ages 20 through 7) and have been married for 23 years. They also have a dumb bloodhound named Ocho.
Tom Nebel – Director of Worldwide Church Multiplication for the Baptist Conference (BGC) and Associate Director of TeAmerica, the church planting movement of the BGC. He has participated in the planting of dozens of churches in Wisconsin and hundreds of churches across the United States. Tom is co-author (with Steve Ogne) of Empowering Leaders through Coaching, The Coach’s Logbook, Big Dreams in Small Places: Church Planting in Smaller Communities. His most recent book (with co-author Gary Rohrmayer) is Church Planting Landmines: Mistakes to Avoid in Years 2-10. Tom is a graduate of Denver Seminary and Fuller Theological Seminary. Tom and Lori make their home in Madison, Wisconsin, along with their two sons, Andrew and Matthew.
Stay tuned.

Praise for With One Voice

This relatively short book packs a powerful bang for the buck, providing much biblical and practical advice for young men and women seeking to glorify God in relationships.

Alex and Brett Harris
Best-selling authors of Do Hard Things

Alex and Marni Chediak offer sound biblical advice and a clear Christian framework for working through the maze of confusions surrounding modern marriage.

R. Albert Mohler, Jr., President
The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

Publishers have been cranking out books with all sorts of directions to help Christians navigate the treacherous waters between the buoys of singleness and marriage, and I know of none that is more clear, concise and helpful than With One Voice.

J. Ligon Duncan, III Ph.D.
Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church

With One Voice is clearly written and God-centered. Our eighteen year-old daughter just read it and restrained herself from underlining nearly the whole thing!

Dr. Bruce A. Ware
Professor of Christian Theology
The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
