Every March, Dallas Theological Seminary cancels classes for a week to host their world evangelization conference. As a member of the DTS class of 1984, it is always a joy to be back on campus and participate in this significant annual event.



I had the privilege of representing ACMC as one of the more than 40 mission agency exhibitors who were part of the conference held March 8-12. This event provided opportunities for lots of good interactions with other sending agency reps, future pastors, and future missionaries. I also led one of two dozen brown bag lunch discussions during the week. My topic was “mobilizing your church for effective engagement in missions in the 21st century.”

The conference speaker for the week was Dr. Michael Frost. Author of The Shaping of Things to Come and Exiles. Frost spoke passionately each day on missional living and the missional church. Great stuff.



My biggest take away – identify a definable group of people that God has clearly called me to seek to reach for Christ and identify a partner to work closely with me in that effort. How about you? Who has God clearly called you to reach? If you don’t know, isn’t it about time to start asking God for that clear calling?
