AGTS News: Off-Road Disciplines: Spiritual Adventures of Missional Leaders

Seminar with Earl Creps

At AGTS, Springfield, Missouri, October 27, 2006

“Missional leadership derives not from methods or strategies but from the work of the Holy Spirit to rearrange one’s interior life. This work is accomplished by practicing what I call off-road spiritual disciplines. These encounters with God happen outside the traditional disciplines, but are often the most transformational if we can put up with the bumps and bruises that come any time you go off road.” Earl Creps will explore 12 central spiritual disciplines—six personal and six organizational—that can reshape Christian leaders and their ministries to engage the culture around them. He will provide a map of the cultural terrain leaders must navigate, with insights on how the process of personal spiritual formation can transform organizations.
