The Riddle Group, Etrek and Biblical Seminary
In the Spring semester I'll be facilitating a course at Biblical Seminary / Etrek.

Etrek is the brainchild of Spencer Burke. My friend Todd Littleton is the Executive Director of Etrek and he invited me to participate. The word on the street is that Biblical Seminary is attempting to rethink the Seminary experience. I've heard this from several folks. Is so, that would be very exciting. Some readers may have heard of Biblical Seminary via professor / author John Franke. (He's wicked smart)

The course I'll be facilitating will likely be named "Reimagine Youth Ministry" and will be the first significant effort to delineate the various shapes of youth ministry in the church.

This will be a course for anyone interested in discussing the issues facing ministry with teens and also for Seminarians.

I'll be posting more information on this soon.

The good thing is, there are very few solid theological schools available locally, so many are simply "Bible training schools" which are more like money sources for their groups, rather than what it seems you are offering. Very interesting.

Mark, I think this a great opportunity for you. All the best as you shape a new vision for student ministry. How are Pam and the boys?
