Lecture given Tuesday, September 19, 2006, 2:00 PM at Abilene Christian University: "It's one thing to "buy in" to Missional theology; it is another to learn to behave Missionally.

What are the corresponding leadership tasks? This extended session will attempt to define these important tasks and provide concrete first steps for developing Missional leaders."
