Paradigm Transformation Projects
November 5 (All Day)
The Paradigm Transformation Projects have been designed to lead participants through the Global Church-Based Theological Education Paradigm. The last 40 years of attempts by Western churches to renew theological education (especially in North America) have resulted in merely adapting the formal model, rather than a radical return to the "way of Christ and His Apostles." These workshops are designed to help participants carefully think through the philosophy of their programs, to make sure they are built carefully on biblical foundations.

- The Church as Theological Education
Current Partner Workshop Options: (workshops run simultaneously)
- The Church as Theological Education

International Conference
Plenary Session: "The Antioch Manifesto"
November 7 (Evening) For All Summit Attendees
Having recently completed "The Antioch Manifesto" teaching series at Oakwood Road Church, Jeff Reed will present a thorough summary of the series' concepts and ideas. The idea of the series comes from the mission model at the heart of the book of Acts. Then it builds on the Antioch tradition/school of the first 3 centuries of the Early Church and provides a challenge and pathway to build paradigms in the 21st century, based on "the way of Christ and His Apostles."
