Well, it’s that time of year. ACU is holding their annual Summit. Used to be called “Lectureship,” but that name was deemed to be unfriendly to students. I’m waiting for the day when someone points out that “summits” are typically meetings held between the leaders of different nations, and they’ll choose a name that better reflects what it is. Something catchy, like “Lectureship.” But I digress.

If anyone will be around for Summit this week, I hope you’ll join Herald of Truth on Tuesday morning for breakfast. We’ll be giving a report on what we’re doing, as well as talk about some of our future projects. We’ll be in the Living Room of the Campus Center at 7 a.m. on Tuesday; there is no charge and some tickets will be available at the door.

Speaking of Herald of Truth, our Director of Ministry, Steve Ridgell, will be speaking in the Teague Center on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons at 4 p.m. He’ll be talking about evangelism, looking at the use of story in sharing the gospel. Really good stuff. You won’t be sorry if you take time to be there. (If you can’t be there, Steve offers the material in an extended seminar format for churches. Your congregation would do well to invite him to be there).

There will be lots of other excellent classes and lectures (err, summits?). The buzz is all about Shane Claibourne being there, but there should be plenty of other good speakers to hear as well. Hope to see you there!
