USA – Pastor Rick Warren of Saddleback Church is going to host another Purpose Driven Church Conference this month after a 10 year hiatus.
Held from June 28 to 30 at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California, Pr Rick says the Purpose Driven conference is now going to focus on “the operating system for the church,”
The conference will help church leaders from across the globe integrate a “Purpose Driven” model into their churches that is based on Warren’s bestselling book “The Purpose Driven Life”, according to media sources.
He also says they have “discovered so many new apps over the last ten years” to beef it up.
“We must help plateaued churches and discouraged pastors, and we must train a whole new generation to embrace God’s five purposes for the church: fellowship, discipleship, worship, ministry and evangelism,” Warren says.
“While God’s purposes for the church have remained unchanged for 2,000 years, we continue to learn how to apply them in a changing world.”
Warren emphasizes in a video message that church leaders who participate in the conference will be saved from “an enormous amount of heartache, because I’m going to share all the mistakes I’ve made and stuff I had to learn the hard way.”
