Church Unbound
What is preventing the Church from responding fully to God's call?
What barriers between Christians mar our witness to the world?
How can the Church break free to become what God intends?
Explore your vision of what the Church could be, along with others who may share or challenge your vision, at the 2010 Church Unbound Conference, August 11-14 at Montreat Conference Center. From the online registration information:
If we believe God yearns to turn the church loose to be a Gospel force in the world, how can we partner in what God is doing? Differences – of culture and color, gender and generation, political perspective and theology – are gifts to be explored and celebrated as we live into a Church Unbound.
The conference leadership:
- Keynote speaker, preacher, and workshop leader Brian McLaren
- Bible study leader Eugene Eung-Chun Park
- Worship and music team Harry Pickens, Liz Kaznak and Jud Hendrix
- Preachers and workshop leaders Margaret Aymer, Nelson Johnson, and Carol Howard Merritt
- Workshop leaders Cassandra Dahnke and Tomas Spath, John Franke, Jack Haberer, Dieter Heinzl, Jin Kim, Jim Kitchens, Sara Pottschmidt Lisherness, and Tom Priest.
Workshops will meet in both the morning and afternoon to allow more depth, and each participant can choose two; or opt for the worship practicum and help create and facilitate the conference worship services.Co-sponsors of Church Unbound are the Presbyterian Outlook, the Cross-Cultural Alliance of Ministries, and Montreat. This is the second Church Unbound; the first, held in 2008, generated excitement and a demand for more.
