Being the Church today!

There are two opportunities to chat with Pastors Shawn and Drew (and others) in an interactive online discussion about what the church looks like when it is being the church. 

How will the Body of Christ live out Jesus in a world gripped by crisis and uncertainty? Are those who are not Christ-followers looking for Jesus in His church today? What influence can or should the church have on people in the current culture? Is the financial chaos of our times a window of opportunity for churches to re-calibrate to the core ideals of the early church as found in the Book of Acts, or has the evangelical church lost a voice of legitimacy altogether?

The online dialogue will follow Pastor Shawn's first message (Sunday, Feb 15th) in a series of seven messages addressing the church's need to be marked by authenticity, simplicity, and community. 

Join us Monday (Feb 16th) and Thursday (Feb 19th) between 9:00 and 10:00 p.m. - right here at this blog site. A live blogging tool known as "Coveritlive" will be used to facilitate the chat-room-like interaction of the two host pastors with those who participate. 

It should be a great discussion! Sign up below to get a reminder for one or both events - or just show up here at either time.

Jeff. Let me know what your experience was. We are trying to iron out any glitches. So far, you are the only response I have had that the software was not working. Sorry for the inconvenience.
