 ThinkNEXT Workshop

Once we arrive at our current situation we immediately face a moment of danger.  Will we succeed in the next set of challenges or will we fall by the wayside?  Progress requires we do a strange thing: throw out much of the knowledge and behaviors that got us where we are, and grow toward the next level.  If we don't, we're heading for disaster.  This is true of individuals as well as institutions. 

The key is learning to ThinkNext!

This workshop will help us learn to anticipate whatever comes Next.  Too many times we choose to Think-Past, and wither in our current challenges because we rely on the skills and behaviors, which served us in the past.  Other times we wither because we get caught up in the urgency of the present...we plateau because we choose to Think-Now!  This workshop will encourage us to ThinkNext as individuals as well as church families. 

 

Date:  Saturday, May 15, 2010

Time: 9:00am - 3:00 pm

Location: Hope Christian Church

Address: 5320 Canal Blvd. NOLA 70124

 

The Louisiana Evangelizing Association is hosting this event and there is no charge for the workshop. We are asking for a donation of $10.00 for the cost of the meal. The workshop will be led by Dr. Phil Claycomb, the director of Nexus: Church Planting Leadership, a department of Dallas Christian College.  Early in his ministry Phil and his wife planted two churches North of Chicago, and led each congregation to plant a daughter church.  Phil has since served as a trainer and coach for church planters as well as turn-around churches.  Since 2003 Phil has played a leading role in forming regional partnerships to launch 18 new churches in Texas and the surrounding States first in his role with Stadia: New Church Strayegies and later as the director of Nexus.  Nexus has helped launch 20 new venues in this region through partnerships with both Christian Churches and Churches of Christ.  Nexus is also currently starting new churches in Arkansas, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas.
