This Sunday our online gathering welcomed a special guest - David Fitch, as we continues the Always Faithful series. We talked about what faithfulness looks like in the context of our communities, especially now.
David has an excellent book called Faithful Presence that presents many of the ideas that we'll be talking about. For a quick overview of the material, check out the synopsis video below.
David Fitch is the author of Faithful Presence: Seven Disciplines that Shape the Church for Mission, and the recent The Church of Us Vs. Them: Freedom From a Faith That Feeds on Making Enemies. He is the B. R. Lindner Chair of Evangelical Theology at Northern Seminary Chicago, IL. He’s married to Rae Ann and they have one child, a son Max. He’s pastored and participated in many church plants including Life on the Vine Christian Community a missional church in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago of the Christian and Missionary Alliance. Most recently he and his family have joined Peace of Christ Church, Westmont, a church planted from Life on the Vine. He writes on the issues the local church must face in Mission including cultural engagement, leadership and theology. His theology combines Neo-Anabaptist streams of thought, his commitments to evangelicalism and his love for political theory.
