Ed and Me

The more I get to know Ed Stetzer, the more I love him. Of course, he and I disagree on stuff and of course we agree on stuff. It is the discerning of disagreements/agreements together that makes possible the church. So I very much enjoyed “doing some church” on film. Bill Kinnon and wife Imbi filmed this when they were Chicago late last year. Ed Stetzer is a pastor, prolific author, missional thinker and director of LifeWay Research for the SBC. This is part one of the video production that appears on the new Missional Tribe Network – an amazing grassroots collaborative networking site for all things missional. Check it out and join.
