Shepastor: An Opportunity to Join an Interesting Conversation...

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen... Hebrews 11:1, KJV

This week, Shepastor highlights an invitation from Baptist Women in Ministry, to join an intriguing conversation. Read below...

WHAT ARE YOU READING IN 2013? (Invitation from Rev. Dr. Pam Durso, Executive Director, Baptist Women in Ministry)

Join Devita Parnell and Pam Durso for our monthly conversation about women and Baptist life.

The 2013 conversations feature interviews with authors, and the great part is that you don't even have to be in Atlanta to be part. We meet via phone conference call and/or online through LIVE meetings. Our next gathering is Monday, May 6! The conversation begins at 10:30 (Eastern Time). The featured author is Danielle Shroyer, author of The Boundary-Breaking God: An Unfolding Story of Hope and Promise. Danielle is pastor of Journey Church in Dallas, Texas, and serves on the Emergent Village Coordinating Group, focusing in areas of social justice and theology.

She concludes The Boundary-Breaking God with these words:

"In all the ways we have understood what it means to be God's people through the years, I pray we can remember that we have always been, people of hope. We have always been the people who dared to believe in God's promises, even and perhaps most important when they seem rather far-fetched. I hope the winds of cynicism never outmatch the billowing promise that has filled our sails as long as this story's been told."

To connect to the conference call, dial 888-824-5783. Enter the passcode 30278726. Invite your friends and colleagues to this conversation! For more information, email Pam Durso at pamdurso@bwim.info .

What a wonderful opportunity! I plan to participate. How about you?

Until next Wednesday,
In Faith, Hope and Perseverance,
Pastor Chris
