The Fermi Project

Last April, I was contacted by Gabe Lyons, co-author of the book, unChristian to address the subject of the multi-ethnic church on a podcast for the Fermi Project. According to their website, "Gabe and Rebekah Lyons founded Fermi Project in 2003, a broad collective of innovators, social entrepreneurs, church and societal leaders working together to make positive contributions to culture." As you may know, the book "reveals exclusive research on pop-culture's negative perception of Christians and convenes 27 of Christianity's most influential voices to address ... the steady erosion of Christianity's reputation in America." Prior to Fermi Project, Gabe co-founded Catalyst, a national gathering of young leaders, while serving as Vice President for John Maxwell's INJOY organization.

Here's a bit more about the Fermi Project from their website ...

"A Fermi is a metric unit of length equal to one quadrillionth of a meter (10-15 meter). It is named after Enrico Fermi who was an Italian-born American physicist. He won a 1938 Nobel Prize for his work on artificial radioactivity caused by neutron bombardment. In 1942, at the University of Chicago, he produced the first controlled nuclear chain reaction.

In contrast to things that are big, Fermi represents the beginning of a chain reaction. It starts small, but through intentional linking over time creates an exponential effect, a major shift within the church's way of viewing its mission and opportunity within the culture."

MP3 Radio Rhema Interview

Listen to my live interview with Radio Rhema on Tuesday morning, February 5. I did the interview from Cairns in Australia and in advance of the first Mosaix Global Network Seminar to be conducted outside the United States.

Grace Chapel

Recently, I had the privilege of speaking at Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA. This historic church (some fifty years old) is transitioning from a healthy, but otherwise homogeneous church into a multi-ethnic community of faith; a slow, but intentional process that began six years ago. With this in mind, I was the keynote speaker for their 6th Annual Cultural and Urban Awareness Weekend . If you would like, you can listen to this message entitled Intentional Pursuits, Predictable Results, one focused on the early rise and development of the New Testament multi-ethnic church at Antioch.

Denver Seminary

Recently, I had the privilege of speaking in chapel at Denver Seminary. I shared the Biblical Mandate for the Multi-ethnic Church on February 19, 2007 and the Seven Core Commitments of a Multi-ethnic Church on February 20, 2007. The links take you directly to the MP3 recordings.
