i have just realised that i have not blogged about this – oops – though i did put it on the pioneer web site. we have had two fabulous days the last two years exploring what we are learning about pioneering mission. out of the first day we published the pioneer gift. and out of the second we are publishing a book (due oct 30) pioneering spirituality. so they have proved very fertile environments for creative thinking so far.
one of the areas that has been exciting and grown way more than we expected has been missional entrepreneurship, a special module that we run, out of which people are starting new enterprises and working up mission ideas into tangible projects. there’s been quite a buzz about it and still is. but there are also lots of questions around money, mission, transformation, entrepreneurship and so on. so we have made the focus of this year’s day missional entrepreneurship: pioneering a new economic imagination with a host of speakers and workshops. you can see details here and book here. it’s only two weeks away on november 3 at cms in oxford – sorry for the short notice!
i am particularly pleased that eve poole is going to be joining us and presenting her thoughts on pioneering mission in the environment of today’s capitalism with its toxic assumptions. I heard her speak at greenbelt where she was excellent. then there are a host of other stories, workshops and presentations. hope you can join us…
