I find this simply fascinating. And I find this really encouraging that Crossway would take up such a cool project. Makoto Fujimura has illuminated The Four Holy Gospels, being the first person in the 400 year history of the King James Bible to have an illumined book of the four Gospels. Fujimura is known for [...]

Monday is for “kingly” administration: Disciple-Making Venues
November 15, 2010Last week, I talked about disciple-making structures, emphasizing church gathered (attractional), church scattered (missional), and leadership development (training). This week I want to take a little different angle at disciple-making at discuss the three venues, namely large gathering (macro), small gathering (micro), and one-to-one (organic). A church with a healthy emphasis on disciple-making will leverage [...]
Gospeling by Trip Lee
November 15, 2010In a day when the gospel is largely assumed and truncated, it is refreshing to hear a clear and accurate gospel presentation. Below is a ten minute video of Trip Lee gospeling the crowd at the Unashamed Tour in Chicago, IL. May God raise up a generation passionately fluent in the Gospel!

November 12, 2010Jamie Munson Primes Triperspectivalism
November 11, 2010One of the most frequented “back pages” of my blog is my compilation on Triperspectival Leadership. I was first introduced to multiperspectivalism back in early 2008, and since then, I have employed this paradigm of thinking in preaching, leadership structures, and discipleship process. In the video below, Jamie Munson of Mars Hill Church (Seattle, WA) [...]

November 10, 2010Back in September, The Gospel Community Conference was held in my old neck of the woods (Huntsville, AL). What is the goal of this conference?

Lead 10 Audio
November 9, 2010Lead 10 is a conference recently held in Auburn, Maine hosted by my friend Josh Cousineau. This is the second year, and the main speakers were Bob Thune (author of The Gospel Centered Life) and Bill Streger. Jared Wilson also shared about gospel wakefulness in breakout sessions. What I love about this conference is that [...]
Monday is for “kingly” administration: Discipleship Structures
November 8, 2010It’s been a little while since my last post on “kingly” administration, but I thought I’d pick things back up again (after the prodding of several friends). The big picture of these systems has been along the lines of what I call the “commission continuum”. This is the “metaprocess” in the life of a “great [...]
You Need the Gospel Every Day
November 6, 2010John Piper on the centrality (and necessity) of the gospel. This is SO good.

Below are videos played at the beginning of the [...]
