Reggie McNeal Promoted by WELS, Too






"I encourage you to check out the book The Present Future by Reggie McNeal. I saw him speak at WLC and I believe we can learn from his insight. Any other thoughts I would appreciate hearing from you.

Love 'em like Jesus!" Mark Heckendorf

GJ - This was part of a youth leaders discussion, a neat way to get even more people started reading Fuller Seminary content. Of course, McNeal is also in the WELS Womb to Tomb schwaermer marketing book.

Notice that dear old Reggie was brought to Wisconsin Lutheran College as a featured speaker. David Valleskey, Fuller alumnus and retired seminary president, calls this "Spoiling the Egyptians," a novel approach where Lutherans raid the garbage heaps of false teachers.

The Amen Corner of WELS--the Little Sect on the Prairie--endorses raiding the garbage.

Joel Gerlach, Fuller alumnus, recommends a Yancey book.

From Womb to Tomb – serves as a WELS reference for a curriculum of studies. A list of resources includes Yancey, Rick Warren, Paul Kelm (Fuller alumnus), Reggie McNeal (Becoming Missional, Fuller), Kent Hunter (DMin, Fuller), David Valleskey, John Parkow (the copy cat), and Bill Hybels.

More Yancey.
