TechnoratiCP: MAC also has an initiative called “Lighthouse Movement.” Is this another name for the “Loving Our Communities To Christ” program?
Cedar: The “Lighthouse Movement” was an initiative launched in 2000 and it still continues, but much of it has been folded into “Loving Our Communities to Christ.”
We don’t want to limit these programs only to these nine initial cities. There are many Lighthouses going on and many Lighthouse churches that are not yet involved in communities to Christ; so these are sort of transition days. We are prayerfully planning to launch in additional cities in early 2007.
CP: What do you mean by the term “launch?”
Cedar: ‘Launching’ means to begin or initiate in these cities. We have an advance team that goes into the cities and meets with pastors and marketplace leaders and helps them get started. These people are what we call national facilitators of the Mission America Coalition.
CP: You’re one of the speakers at the conference, and I was wondering if you could give us a preview of what you will be speaking about.
Cedar: You’ll notice that our agenda has three major plenary sessions focused on prayer, care, and share. I’m going to do the plenary session on prayer. Particularly, I will be speaking on praying for lost people and I’m going to share both biblically and practically how we can begin to pray for people who have never had the privilege to come to personal faith in Jesus Christ.
