Christianity is diasporic. Diaspora is a major theme of the Bible. Biblical writings are diasporic, meaning they are written by, to, for, and about migrants.

We're walking through a series of significantly impactful pandemics of different approaches, different challenges, different difficulties. There is also now a pandemic of distrust in culture.

Seek to understand before you seek to be understood. Every person has a story a unique story of where they have been and to where they are now. When you listen, take the time to really listen to people's story and then share your story.

When we say “global” I want us to remember the cities and the people in this country. Because these people need to be reached as well.

Testimonials

I loved all the general sessions. I appreciated how relevant the topics are to today's issues. I hope Missio will continue to center the general sessions around those.

Thank you for courageously addressing timely and relevant issues. The diversity of thought, experiences and demographics was intentional and well-received.

Excellent content and variety of speakers. Important topics. Overall A+ for these sessions!

Presenters for the financial boot camp were excellent, as well as other finance related sessions.

The Member Care track was especially well done - Geoff Whiteman is a treasure - his hosting of the track was so deep and prayerful.

The Development track was EXCELLENT this year. Nathan, the track leader was stellar. The sessions were super practical and relevant.

In general - the workshops were really relevant to the theme and had great options.

Good opportunities to learn more in specific areas. I enjoyed the development and communication tracks.

I appreciate the time that presenters spent to develop the workshops and breakout sessions. The overall workshop quality was generally a little better than average.

How do we fulfill the Great Commission when there are so many cultural shifts around us?

We live in a time where Sunday continues to be more segregated than we want. Even though our corporations and companies are more diverse and multi-cultural than they have ever been. We live in a time where the cultural ethic is more like Rome than Mayberry. Instead of starting your career in one company and ending it in another, we live in a time where you are born in one country and die in another. We live in a time where the church is no longer seen as the anchor of society but finds itself tossed on the waves of the sea of stormy cultural change unsure of its own future.

These are many of the rapid social changes we’re facing and we focused on at the 2023 Mission Leaders Conference.
