This is an encouraging lecture that Mark Driscoll gave at a recent Acts 29 Bootcamp. It’s interesting to hear the progression from Movement > Organisation > Institution > Museum. There are great insights into the vision of Acts 29 and how they are contending and contextualising the gospel.
Most exciting is seeing something of what God’s Spirit is currently doing around the world as Jesus is proclaimed. Recommended viewing if you’re thinking about planting a church.
This weekend we had a camp @ Attunga for our year from college. Really valuable time. It was good to hang out, read the Bible, eat food and spend too much time in the spa!
In today’s second session, we spoke about ‘organisational culture’ ie ‘how we do things around here’. It was helpful to think through what our year group looks like, how we will go about relating and studying and loving on each other. Very good times. (Kate has some more detailed thoughts)
Don’t miss it next year fool!
Yesterday was the last Friday Foto. Today I’m calling ‘game over’ on Jesus Life Culture Design. Sam thinks the name sucks too, so let’s say goodbye. Tot ziens. Adéu. Head aega. Sampai jumpa. Auf Wiedersehen. Rack off. Stay tuned for exciting new adventures next weekend! Are you a twit? Then hit me up on twitter.

Game over for Friday Foto. This is the final one. Is it stupid to stop at 47? I don’t think so. I’ve run out of pictures – and I’m not inspired at the moment to try and take more.

Warm fuzzy for the name of the cafe.
Stay tuned for exciting new adventures next week!
We went to Justin Moffatt’s Induction tonight. He’s now in charge (under Jesus) of the Anglican Church on York St in the city. It was a really good service and supper.
I’ve chatted with Justin online for the last couple of years, but this was the first time I’ve properly met him offline. It’s encouraging to hear of Justin’s enthusiasm to preach Jesus to the City of Sydney. Praying for revolution! Do you believe in Jesus?
At KYCK 1997 (then called KYCKSTART), during Ian Powell’s talk on Luke 18:9-14, I first understood that Christianity is not about what you do, but trusting in what Jesus has done. My world was rocked! This year I’m going to KYCK for the first time since 97. Vid:
I’m going with the crew from Willoughby, and I’m really looking forward to it. Scott Petty and Ross Ciano will be speaking. I think they’re the two best youth preachers going around. Bring it! You going?
