New York Trip: Part III

I think I’m going to lose some weight over the course of this trip with all the walking – none of the places we need to go to regularly are right next to a subway station, we always have to walk a few blocks so I’m getting plenty of exercise (although that huge calzone pizza I had at lunch today probably didn’t help).

So yesterday the wives slept in and us boys (me, Tobie and Endre) heading out to the intensive. We started the day by listening to Felipe Assis and the replanting work he has done in Miami, Florida – sounds like an interesting work being done by an interesting guy. Then we spent most of the day with Network Leadership Forum. So alongside the GCI conference some of the key leaders stayed over this week and attended a week long forum on developing and leading church planting networks and movements in major global cities. Some of you might know Shaun Storer – he was our rep for Johannesburg. So we sat in on their sessions for the rest of the day learning about network dynamics and the key types of people you need to have in place for sustainable networks.

This morning (Thursday) we had a slightly later start and spent a session on the factors involved in church planter’s call to church planting and then a session based on Paul Tripp and Timothy Lane’s book ‘How People Change‘. After that it was time to shop for food – which is a serious pain because you’ve got to walk a fair distance with heavy bags. Now I’m about to have supper with our apartment crew and Shaun so I’ll check in with you all later…

Paul Tripp on Community

In preparing to do a talk on the subject of ‘community’ in two weeks time I came across this great article by Paul Tripp entitled, ‘Created for Community‘. It’s well worth a read.

BTW – Paul Tripp is in South Africa at the moment and will be preaching at St Stephen’s this coming Sunday evening.
