I just had the privilege of going to the ACTS 29 church planter’s bootcamp” in Raleigh. The highlight was hearing Mark Driscoll teach on the history of church planting movements. The Bible talks about the sons of Issachar who understood the times that they were in. Mark has a good understanding of God is doing while He’s doing it. The perspective can help avoid some of the pitfalls others have fallen into.
Mark pastors Mars Hill Church in Seattle, WA. His passionate commitment to truth and his relevance to culture are very refreshing.
Here’s a recent interview (about a week ago) with Mark by Nightline.

I thought his talk on movements and what’s happening in the Church right now was the highlight of the conference too.
I think it’s interesting that there is a merging of several streams (he called it “clumping”) creating some very effective church planting and revitalization of declining churches.
