"Our 2,100 delegates not only heard from conference leaders about new and creative ways to engage their culture and grow and reproduce their churches, but they were also able to network with delegates from other cultures, countries and denominations and find out how some of those best practices worked" - isnt it this creative engaging of culture one of the reasons that the church in America is in the state it is now. lukewarm, shallow, naked - laodicean. Now they want to spread it to the world. If it is God who saves through the preaching of the word shouldnt the emphasis be on that instead of creatively engaging the world? Growth in a church isnt always indicative of Gods power. I hope they understand that. This conference seems to emphasize size over substance. They want to bring to Christ the next billion people. But who is going to reach the first billion? I doubt if we even have a billion Christians in this world.
