using the CMS.

Join Ekklesia 360 at GCA&#39;s North America Church Planting Seminar.  Drew Goodmanson, Monk Development&#39;s (creators of Ekklesia) founder will be presenting two sessions on Message and Media: Communicating the Gospel in Our Post-Christian World. 
</p>
<p>
<br />
Session 1: Communication in Our Post-Christian World<br />
The culture is changing and it requires new methods of communication.  This session will help you learn how to effectively minister in a post-Christian context.   Come learn the 1) five values of this Post-Christian generation, the 2) ten idols that enslave them and 3) effective ways to communicate the eternal and unchanging gospel message.<br />
<br />
Session 2: The Internet &amp; The Sovereignty of God<br />
Pax Romana, the Gutenberg printing press and the internet.  God has used major technological and cultural shifts to bring sweeping change.  As our culture moves increasingly online, this session will help your church effectively use the internet to be missionaries to unbelievers, gather the unchurched and connect with your community.  Come learn how to use this powerful tool to change the community in which you are.
