About
By Brad Brisco
I grew up in Wichita and was in the restaurant business for 13 years. I have an undergraduate degree in health care admin from Wichita State, a Masters of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, and a Doctorate of Ministry degree in the area of missional ecclesiology.
I have been involved in church planting for over thirteen years and am currently a church planting strategist for a network of churches in Kansas City, where I recruit, train and coach church planters. I am also on the board of KC SENTral, a missional training center located in Kansas City. KC SENTral is a partnership with KNCSB, Christian & Missionary Alliance, and FORGE America.
Additionally, I enjoy working with existing congregations that desire to more deeply engage God’s mission in a local context. I have taught college level courses for more than ten years, including History of Christianity, Religion in America, Life of Paul, Discipleship and Evangelism and a course on Worship. I am married to Mischele and we have two boys, Joshua and Caleb.

Thanks for your comments over at Nameless, Brad. It’s appreciated.
Hi Brad,
It’s Mark Priddy with Allelon. I just wanted to drop you a note and say thanks for always providing links to the site. It’s nice to be on the journey with you. I really appreciate it. Look forward to meeting one day face to face.

Would you do a book review of my newest book “Finding the Missional Path” and post it on your site? I would be grateful. It is scheduled for release in late August by Xulon Press. I can send you a free copy for your review.
I would be grateful.

Hey Brad,
I don’t know how you got across my firewall. It usually weeds out Yankees fans! Totally kidding. 7 is not even close to 26! Thanks for your comment. I know how much it took to commend the Sox. If the time ever comes, I will remember your words and try my hardest to do the same to the Yanks!
Blessings,
Art.
I’d like to be added to your blogroll. I’m a Transformation Ministies pastor here in Southern California, at First Baptist/Temple City.
Brad,
My name is Lance Ford. On behalf of Alan Hirsch…thanks for the great review on The Forgotten Ways. Alan and I are partners on a website for missional leaders. http://www.shapevine.com features great live video interviews (for Free) and we will also be rolling out some great courses for simple church and missional church leaders. We will be posting preferred site links soon and will recipricate.
Thanks,
Lance
Greetings in the name of Jesus! Could you send me a list of a confrenece or workshop in south carolina or on the east coast? Thanks
Thanks for dropping by my blog… Exponential ’08 was excellent. The main sessions and pre-launch breakout was terrific. I also attended the Creative Communication Pre-Conference intensive with Mark Batterson. Batterson has an amazing intellect and a tremendous heart. God’s best to you and your ministry.
1) I am looking for Christ followers with a similar conviction in this area (VA). How do I find them?
2) It seems to me that even in the books and meanderings here, the Church is still the structure and not the people? Why is that? What am I missing?
Brad – Thanks for stopping by my blog. Just posted the other Reggie McNeal video – Thanks! I’m going to send you an email off-line. I have a few questions for you about what you are doing and I want to share with you what I am doing. Peace.
Brad,
WOW! I really appreciate your site!!
I would like to invite you to the RISE Conference on Novemebr 6, 2008 at Eagles Brooke Church in Locust Grove,GA(Just thirty minutes south of Atlanta Hartfield Jackson International Airport). This conference is designed for missional conservation around the topics of the missional church and the fledging missional resurgence movement in North America. You can find more information next week at http://www.riseconference.com and http://www.themissionalgroup.com. I would really appreciate a link to my sites from your site and would be gald to link others to you as well.

Just received your response to your reply to my “Book List” post at “tangiblethoughts.” Thanks for the suggestions about where to begin my reading.
Brad,
I love your site and believe in what you are doing. I hope all is going well.
Brad, I would like to network with you and partner with you as well. What does that look like for you?
I think we have a window of opportunity to convert the church in North America to a new expression-the missional church.
Ck me out at http://www.themissionalgroup.com and http://www.riseconference.com
Would you be willing to link to my pages? Would you be willing to promote the RISE CONFERENCE? Let me know what you think.
Let’s go missional!!! And, simply missional.
