P.S. We actually recorded all four days of my lectures.  I spent a day on Assimialtion, a day on Growth Barriers, a day on Small Groups and a day on Church Systems – all at graduate level discussion.   Church Leader Insights is currently not planning on packaging these lectures as a resource but if you would like to have them for your library, I can make them available for cost-recovery…email me at ns1 (at) journeymetro.com for more info.
