I want to make you aware of the Missional X conference coming up September 20-22 in Tucson. The conference will feature Jim Henderson, author of Evangelism Without Additives and Jim and Casper Go to Church and Darrin Patrick, pastor of The Journey in St. Louis and Vice-President of Acts 29. For more information, including workshop topics be sure to check out the site.
This looks promising. Are you going to be there, Brad?

Yes I hope to but I have not yet made my plans. I should have a better idea later this week. The organizer is Sean Benesh, the church planting strategist in Tucson, a guy you would very much appreciate. I’ll let you know later if I am heading that way for sure.
Do you ever think we hear words like missional so much that we go deaf to it? I wouldn’t like to think so but it makes me wonder. I hope the conference goes well. Sounds like a good one.
Matt, yes perhaps the word seems to be over used in some circles but I do believe it is a very good word that captures much that needs to be emphasized. There was a short but helpful post by Scot McKnight a couple of weeks ago on the word missional. If you haven’t seen it you can find it at http://www.jesuscreed.org/?p=2529
