Send North America Conference 2012

Jeff Christopherson. One of the evangelical world's greatest areas of both interest and confusion is found in the biblical theme of the kingdom of God. In an era of denominational decline and even hostile skepticism toward "organized religion," believers are trying to reconcile Jesus' kingdom concepts with what they have experienced in "church." As a result, much deconstruction of the church has taken place with little attention given to what might replace it. This workshop is about the question of how the church properly fits into the larger picture of God's activity—and how to design a church for the kingdom of God.
