Over the years, I’ve been amazed to see the response to our content from people in the United Kingdom.  London consistently ranks in the top three cities internationally for downloads and web traffic, which continues to amaze me. It’s been three years since I’ve been there, but we will be returning next week for three events. I’m eager to come serve and see what I can learn along the way.

Planting for Christ

Wednesday, May 4 The Factory, Raynes Park, London

This will be a one-day conference for anyone who is interested in planting a church. Although the focus will be on London and surrounding areas, the principles and focus will be biblically based and applicable in any context. I will be speaking on the subject, "Who Should Plant a Church?" [More info]

For All Seasons (Acts 29 Boot Camp)

Thursday, May 5 and Friday, May 6 Birmingham Christian Centre Parade, Birmingham

I’ve been excited to see the growth of the Acts 29 church-planting movement into Great Britain and Western Europe under the direction of my friend Steve Timmis. This event will be an exciting opportunity to see some of what’s happening over there firsthand. I will be giving two talks: "A Church for All Seasons: The Nature of a Church Plant" and "A Word for All Seasons: The Message of a Church Planter," in addition to an extended Q&A time. [More info]

The London Men’s Convention

Saturday, May 7 Royal Albert Hall, London

The London Men’s Convention has been going on since 2002, and I am honored by the opportunity to come and serve them this year. Seeing 4,000 men in the historic Royal Albert Hall singing to Jesus should be quite a sight. This year’s theme is "Faithful," and I will be covering the topics "Faithful at Home" and "Faithful in Mission." [More info]
