KOINOS
SEMINARS
GROUPED AROUND THE THEME OF RADICAL CHRISTIANITY
How
would Jesus evaluate what happens in twenty-first century American churches?
What about the level of twenty-first century American discipleship?
The
learning events described below could be the catalysts for God bringing
transformation. They are rated "P" for powerful.
Would
you like to see dates on which the following seminars
are currently being offered?
Current KOINOS
Radical Christianity seminars include:
Reversing the
Religious Culture--What Might Jesus Have Meant by the Beatitudes?
Too many Christians see these
statements as little more than a pile of polite spiritual mush. Jesus intended
them to revolutionize first and twenty-first century culture.
The Sermon on the
Mount--Did Jesus Mean What He Said?
"Love your
enemies!" "Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect!"
"When you fast . . ." "Don't worry!" "Don't
judge." Why has the church softened Jesus' challenges?
Differences
between Churchianity and Kingdom Living
Is your church a model evangelical
Christian social club or a strong unit of Jesus' people helping to establish
God's Kingdom? God's Kingdom is not yet fully here, but it is here in fact.
Would visitors to your church experience your interaction as a taste of the
Kingdom here and now?
The Emerging
Church--A New Model for the Young and Strange, or Are There Lessons in This
Pattern for All of Us?
You have heard some rumors of a
new way of churching. You will be glad when this fad passes. But what if
"the emerging church" is a move of God's Spirit? You can keep on doing
church in the great tradition of the 1980's or you can be on the cusp of the
church truly reaching out.

these learning events, contact Dr. Phil Bence at the KOINOS office (206-546-5446
