| Paul Kelm is so famous for his heresies that he has endured several minutes of unemployment in WELS. They are so strict about doctrine in the Wisconsin Sect. Kelm had two calls at once, so he could pick and choose. He is the oldest college chaplain in North America. |

GJ - Someone told me Paul Kelm and Al Sorum were running a conference. Thanks to a doctor of divinity, I found the link and confirmed the conference led by Kelm in the WLC magazine.
Kelm is famous for hosting the Leonard Sweet conference, in spite of objections from his fellow pastors. Remember that Matthew 18 claim about going to someone and telling him his fault? - which does not apply to false teachers. Kelm would not even answer anyone who objected.
I find this announcement strangely devoid of names. Normally the celebrity speaders are named on the agenda to attract more people. The silence may be Ichabod-effect, "the hiding and shredding of data to deny content to everyone's favorite blog." That is why I copy all the wording or create PNG images when necessary.
The magazine did not mention Sorum, but one source said he was named in Fickle. If anyone wants to add information, feel free to comment.

| Leonard Sweet is not even a nominal Christian. He is a space cadet for the New Age Movement. |

And of course the all important bullet point "Dealing with Disagreement". What's wrong with this picture?

GJ - Opponents of Church and Change are wolves, according to the lupine Church and Changers.

The latest FICL lists the conference on pages 20-21. There are no speakers listed. It is held at the WLC "Center for Christian Leadership". The listing of conferences and workshop in FICL is enough to produce cognitive dissonance. This leadership mantra is repeated ad nauseum.

GJ - Mercury, like false doctrine, is toxic. Hit a blog with a hammer and it will scatter into a bunch of little shiny blogs. Mercury quickly attaches itself to silver and gold, just as false doctrine puts a sheen on sound doctrine. False teachers say, "Look at us, because we can get between you and those old legalists of the past, to open things up for everyone. It's all for Jesus. We are passionate about sharing Jesus."
Kelm's cell groups were supposed to cause explosive growth in Milwaukee, according to his advocates at WLC, one of many schools owned and operated by Church and Change. Milwaukee residents have heard no explosions, on decrepitation.
