Click Here to visit our home page to get registration information. Click on any SUMMIT 2008 link. The Associational Summit is held annually for the professional development of Southern Baptist associational staff. “If there is anyone in Southern Baptist life that has a sense of the dynamics of ministry in a changing American culture, it is Ed Stetzer," stated Sid Hopkins, National Chairman of the Network of Baptist Associations. Hopkins further stated, “Dr. Stetzer will challenge our thinking, our structures, our systems and our comfort zones. Associational leaders need to be at the forefront of all things missional and Stetzer will push us to closely examine who we are and who we need to become.” Dr. Ed Stetzer has served in churches for 20 years. He has also served as a seminary professor, the senior director of the Center for Missional Research at the North American Mission Board and now as Director of Lifeway Research and Missiologist in Residence for Lifeway Christian Resources. He has written dozens of articles and books including "Breaking the Missional Code" and "Comeback Churches." In addition to the plenary sessions led by Stetzer, (Click to see schedule) there will be 20 breakout sessions led by 14 Directors of Missions and denominational leaders (look at sessions HERE). Another great feature of the 2008 SUMMIT is that LifeWay Christian Resources and the International Mission Board will be hosting their annual updates and orientation in conjunction with the conferences. NoBA is honored to partner with these two entities at our January gathering. Click HERE for more information.
