A Quick Update

Hey Everyone-

Just wanted to take a few minutes to give everyone a quick update on a few things.

Calvary Church Planting Network

I've been both sensing from the Lord and have been recently encouraged to keep on writing for the edification of the body of Christ. So I've decided that I need to continue to use my time well and write. So I have written two new articles for the Church Planting Network (as well as posted Church Planting Specific Audio) as part of the Perspectives on Church Planting series. The two new articles are called 'Understanding Your Context' and 'Dealing with Numbers '. You can access these resources Here.

There is also a blog site for your discussion and edification. You can find the articles and blog Here.


Lord Willing I'll Begin to Write a Book on Post Post-modernity

A few posts ago, I mentioned some insights that the Lord has bestowed in regards to the emerging world-view that has been called in some circles, Integral. As the church grapples with post-modernity, many areas have already progressed past this. The area that I am in (the San Francisco Bay Area) was post-modern about 20 years ago. In an effort to get out ahead of this, I'm hoping to find some time to write a book about the topic. Not sure how that is going to happen (or that anyone either cares or would publish such a writing), but I'm trusting the Lord to give me the wisdom and wherewithal to accomplish this important task.

Calvary North Bay

The ministry here in Mill Valley is simply doing amazing. It is a great experience to be part of. The Lord is doing a very special work in this area. Here's our website. Please do me a favor and take a few minutes and pray for our leaders.

The Fusco Family

Obadiah just turned four years old. Maranatha is 11 months. Lynn is beautiful. I am a blessed man.

Calvary Chapel North Bay Men's Conference

I'm excited to announce that the Calvary Chapel's in the North Bay of San Francisco are putting on a one day Men's Conference on May 23rd called 'To Him Who Overcomes' at Calvary Chapel Petaluma, Petaluma, CA. The Speakers will be Dave Rolph, Bill Holdridge, Zach Vestnys, and Yours Truly. Please keep this in your prayers.

What I Am...

* All I can say is 'Wow!'. If you are a teacher, run, don't walk to get this one

- The New Testament and the People of God by NT Wright
* Still working through this one. The Bishop of Durham is way to verbose sometimes, but there is some amazing historical exegesis in this volume.
