Next PALCO: 1st Century Disciplemaking, Nov 8th


The big question we continually seek to explore and answer in PALC Ongoing is: What does 1st century Jesus-like disciplemaking look like in a 21st century Western World? 

Think about this for a moment.

You can't answer our big question without some knowledge of 1st century Jesus-like disciplemaking.

Our day long gathering will focus on exploring and havering over what can be known about 1st century Jesus-like disciplemaking—and how that translates to us as disciplemakers in a 21st century Western world. 

Date?
Thursday, November 8, 2012

Time?
9 AM to 4 PM

Where?
Camp of Champions, Pekin, IL


Who?
You (PALC alumni) and anyone from your life and ministry you think would really like to explore 1st century Jesus-like disciplemaking—including your wife. (Sorry, no children.) If you're bringing more than 5 people, please just let me know so we can prepare accordingly.

Prep?
It would be ideal if everyone reads Imaginary Jesus before our day together. Why this book? This book (which we actually read to our kids) will raise a very important question that will launch us into havering at PALCO on 11/8/12. Seriously, don't freakout about reading this book. It's a very fast (and strange) read. (Sample chapter and video here.) FYI: I currently have 14 copies of Imaginary Jesus in my possession.  I will gladly a get copy to you for NO EXTRA COST immediately after Cadre receives your tuition. First come first serve. Of course, you don't have to get a copy of the book from me. You are more than welcome to purchase your own copy wherever you like.

(Dan Learned has already read the book, and here's what he had to say: "I read Imaginary Jesus. Loved it! And I agree with you that it'll be a kid-read around the dinner table. Good stuff! Thanks!" Ed Brockway writes, "I'm loving Imaginary Jesus, especially page 44—the donkey's definition of a disciple!")

Tuition?
—$50 for you, the ministry leader.
You will get the training experience, up to two books, all twelve Rabbi Jesus audios (3 of which you already have), and a trainer's digital file that includes the presentation. It's a $150 value in resources alone. (Please bring a large jump drive or your laptop!)
—$25 for any guest from your ministry.
Each guest will get a training experience, the twelve Rabbi Jesus audios, and a book.

Registration?
Registration will be on a first come, first serve basis. Once your tuition is paid, you are considered registered. If you're one of the first 14 people to register, I will be sure to get the Imaginary Jesus book to you ASAP.
* To register via regular mail, send a check to: Cadre Ministries, PO Box 264, Mossville, IL 61552 and include a note that the check is for PALCO.
(If money is truly an issue for you, let me know and I'll take care of it for you. Not joking. I love you.)

Lunch?
Each person should bring their own lunch.


Bring?
If you already have copy of the book, Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus, be sure to bring it with you on 11/8/12! If you don't already have a copy, you DON'T need to read it, buy one, or bring one with you.


Can You Help?
We need a someone to bring...
* coffee, cream, sugar, and cups
* healthy snacks
* donuts and goodies for the rest of us who don't care if we die young.

Let Bill know ASAP if you can you help us with one of these!
