I am working very hard right now on a weekend seminar called "Welcome and Wanted." (All my loved ones at Concord Rd are likely to smile at this point or laugh!)
The purpose of the seminar is to stir churches to greater outreach to the lost. As you know, the 2009 Directory of the Churches of Christ showed that we are indeed on a plateau and not growing as we should. Many congregations do not have the motivation or the tools they need to reach out to the lost. I am hoping to stir them up to reach out once again.
I found while teaching courses in Church Growth that many churches have no plan at all to reach the lost. Many congregations have not seen a single baptism in the last year or two. Some congregations haven't seen a baptism is several years. We can and must do better than this.
I have weekends free in the coming years and would love to come to your congregation and present this material and to tell you of the great work of In Search of the Lord's Way and how it can help your local congregation.
Most of our viewers are NOT members of the church.
You can reach me at phil@searchtv.org or at 405-348-3242.
kindly,
phil

What week were you on the program and can you tell me the dates you will be on the program? I get to the church building by 6 AM each Sunday and do not get to see ISOTLW. I can watch it on the Net would like to when you will be teaching. That is not to say that I will not or do not watch M.L.
