 Becoming a Missionary in Your Zip Code
Becoming a Missionary in Your Zip Code will be presented by Todd West, pastor connections coordinator for the BMA of Texas. Churches will naturally become inwardly focused without a biblical plan to focus outwardly, resulting in the focus being on budgets, buildings and ministries designed for our current members and ministry to those in other countries. Certainly, all of these are important, but not to the neglect of those who need Jesus in our own zip code. In this workshop, you will see how New Testament principles can come alive in the communities where God has placed our churches in this present day. This workshop is designed to place practical tools in your hands to implement in the church where you serve. At the end of the day, everyone will leave a customized plan for your zip code and the next steps for engaging your church family.

The Preaching Lab will be presented by Clif Johnson, host of The Preaching Lab Podcast and pastor of Garrett Memorial Baptist Church in Hope, Arkansas. We all know that telling stories is not preaching, but sometimes preaching includes telling stories. And we also know that application grounded in a grammatical, redemptive-historical understanding of the meaning of the text is unhealthy preaching. In this seminar we will seek to sharpen these two tools that help build a biblical sermon.
