Join us for a thought-provoking conversation with Reverend Dr. Ben Haupt and Reverend Dr. Scott Seidler as we dissect the Mission Partners Platform—a groundbreaking initiative aiming to build a stronger, more interconnected network within the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS). Reverend Dr. Ben Haupt shares his profound experiences from his new role at PLI and the awe-inspiring mission work unfolding in Mexico. Meanwhile, Reverend Dr. Scott Seidler brings an urgent call for accountability, stressing the need for congregations to set tangible goals for growth and outreach against the backdrop of current challenges facing the LCMS.
We'll also scrutinize the limitations of the current centralized system for placing theological teachers and workers within the Synod, advocating for a revolutionary shift towards a more decentralized model. This bold move could empower local entities and district presidents, restoring both trust and efficiency. Additionally, discover how contemporary tools like podcasts are reshaping the church's engagement with culture, and get a sneak peek into the upcoming Unfettered Word Conference in Ann Arbor. This conference is set to stimulate meaningful dialogue and action, urging local pastors and congregations to take ownership of their ministry missions, creating a 'Coalition of the Willing' committed to active and immediate mission work. Don't miss this riveting discussion on mobilizing for the Great Commission.

Do you have a dream to reach people with the gospel, but feel stuck? There is hope for you.
Join us on an incredible learning journey to discover, develop, and deploy your calling to bless the world around you with the love of Jesus!
