Announcements of two upcoming events: non-fundamentalist evangelical Christians are getting organized

Austin, Texas, October 5-6: The Midsouth Regional gathering of the Ecclesia Project: http://midsouth.ecclesianet.org. Topic: “Everyday Theology.” I will be giving a keynote address on that subject on Friday evening (October 5).

Alexandria, Virginia, April 11-13, 2013 inaugural national gathering of the new Missio Alliance: www.missioalliance.org. Topic: “The Future of the Gospel.” Many speakers including yours truly.

I hope many of you will attend one or both of these as possible.

Caveat: I realize some of the participants and presenters at these events do not consider themselves “evangelical,” but I think that’s because (as I’ve discussed here many times before) the label has been sullied by the media and fundamentalists who claim it for themselves (as if they are the paradigm of authentic evangelicalism).
