The Saddleback Conversation – LIVE!

Saddleback Church has been one of the most influential congregations in the United States, and now the church’s reach extends around the globe. But as the church faces a new age of globalization, and a demographic shift toward the Southern hemisphere, what will it mean for the role of American churches and leaders? That subject and many others will be the focus of our conversation at Saddleback Church in June.

We’ve already gathered in cities across the country to talk about issues facing the global church, but the conversation on June 10 at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California, will be unlike any so far. For the first time we will be broadcasting the conversation live online and allow you to send in questions directly to our panelists.

For those of who are interested in attending the conversation in person, there are only 500 seats available. You can sign up here.

The line up on June 10 is also fantastic. I have the privilege of moderating the conversation again, but with me on the panel will be:

Kay Warren
Author and Activist, Saddleback Church

Jim Belcher
Pastor, Redeemer Presbyterian Church (Newport Beach); Author, Deep Church

Dr. Michael S. Horton
Professor, Westminster Seminary

Jena Lee Nardella
Executive Director, Blood: Water Mission

Miles McPherson
Senior Pastor, Rock Church (San Diego)

Dr. Soong Chan Rah
Professor, North Park Theological Seminary

The gathering is being hosted by:

Doug Birdsall
Executive Chairman, Lausanne Committee on World Evangelization

And

Dr. Rick Warren
Pastor and Founder, Saddleback Church

You can read more about the panelists and hosts for the event here. Whether in person or online, I hope you’ll participate in this important conversation as we look forward to our global gathering in Cape Town in October.
