Emerging Church - Dan Kimball

The seeker-sensitive movement revolutionized the way we did church and introduced countless baby boomers to Jesus.  Yet trends show that today’s post-Christian generations are not responding like generations before them.  As we enter a new cultural era, what do worship services look like that are connecting with the hearts of emerging generations?  How do preaching, leadership, evangelism, spiritual formation, and, most of all, how we even think of “church” need to change?

One model is “Vintage Christianity”: a refreshing return to an unapologetically sacred, raw, historical, and Jesus-focused missional ministry.  Vintage Christianity connects with emerging post-seeker generations who are very open spiritually but are not interested in church.

The Emerging Church 4-CD set is broken down into the following:

•    Session 1:  Maintaining Life and Ministry in Post-Christian America
•    Session 2:  Models of How Churches are Designing Ministry for Emerging Generations
•    Session 3:  Designing Multi-Sensory Worship Gathering for Emerging Generations, Part I
•    Session 4:  Designing Multi-Sensory Worship Gathering for Emerging Generations,  Part II
