Featured Guests

Todd Wagner Todd Wager Todd is the Senior Pastor of Watermark Community Church in Dallas.  He will speak from a recent event in the church which became national news, “Care & Correction: When Your Church Issues Go National.” The newspapers screamed headlines such as “Is Public Shaming by the Church Legal?” and “Church, ex-member battle over discipline.” The story ran from coast to coast and was fodder in blog discussions, hallway chatter, legal circles and church meetings. A seminal event in dealing with a church member had been captured by the national media. In the past, churches has been accused of being “too soft” on members who stray from the path, but now a church was attacked as being strident and invading personal privacy. ABC News said: A female member of the Watermark Community Church, a non-denominational evangelical church in Dallas, Texas, reached out to her pastor after her husband had an alleged affair with another woman.   But when the husband, identified only as “John Doe,” failed to reconcile with his wife, he said the church’s minister, Todd Wagner, shamed him from the pulpit.

Mike Buster Mike is the Executive Pastor of Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, Texas.  Many churches considering a building project and in the midst of a new building.  Mike has reams of experience in building projects at Prestonwood, as well as advising many churches in how to best shape their new buildings.  Mike will speak on “Buster on Buildings: So Many Churches are Building.”

Milfred Minatrea Milfred Minatrea Milfred is an author and missional church specialist.  He will speak on the Minister Function: The Nine Cultural Checkpoints of Missional Churches.  Milfred Minatrea is the author of Shaped by God’s Heart: The Passion and Practices of Missional Churches. You can also take the Missional Church Cultural Assessment on XPastor

Ron Moore Bill Northrop Ron Moore & Bill Northrop Ron is the Senior Pastor and Bill is the Executive Pastor of South Hills Bible Chapel Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  They just finished a new building … and they thought the work was over with the construction. Church growth issues, staff issues, governing board issues. So many people want to build a bigger worship center, but the cost is far more than the building. What is the complete price of a new building for your congregation?

Bill Egner Bill is the Executive Pastor of Christ Chapel in Fort Worth presents Case Study #4, Seemingly Little Decisions with Huge Implications—Three Options for Outreach.

Toby Slough & Jim Kuykendall Toby Slough Toby is the Senior Pastor of CrossTimber Church of Argyle, Texas.  Many churches are growing by adding a video venue or a church acquisition.  Toby will speak on “”Catching the Wave of Multi-Site: One Church, Three Campuses, Four Locations, Seven Services.”  As one person saw the video venue experienced: I walked in the darkened auditorium and saw Toby Slough pacing a sixteen foot path on the stage. On two side screens, I saw close-ups of Toby. There was a blink and Toby disappeared from center stage—then I realized that the life-size Toby was an image projected on a screen. As the Founding and Senior Pastor of Cross Timbers Community Church, Toby Slough in just 5 years has seen the church go from birth to over 4000 in weekly worship. Part of the spiritual DNA of Cross Timbers is Toby infusing an alarming degree of authenticity into his sermons. He knows and talks about his strengths and weaknesses. Toby’s ability to talk about the needs and vacancies in his life can cause painful self-examination by a listener—leading to Christ-centered life change. God uses the sermons by Toby to bring the truth of the Bible into the lives of thousands of people each week. The “upside” is Toby’s approachability—he is “just” another guy who is wrestling with God in daily life.Cross Timbers has expanded from one building to a church of “three campuses and seven services” (even as this case was being drafted, CT went to eight services). To accomplish this, they employ what multi-site churches commonly call a “video venue.”

About the Seminar

Afternoon Case Studies

The key to the XP-Seminar is the format. After each 40 minute presentation, table groups examine the stated topic. This is an ideal opportunity to honestly evaluate an issue, to present a slice of ministry, and to get feedback from people in similar positions.

• What new ideas can you take home from the case study
• How will the discussion give you new insight into your church?
• Where can you grow as you interact with others in similar positions to your own?

The afternoon sessions bring church case studies and experienced leaders to challenge our thinking. The case studies present models of ministry.

• Cross Timbers Church in Argyle, Texas. One church of 4500, 3 campuses, 4 locations, 7 services. This case study will explore a church as it has recently launched into multi-site ministry. Is multi-site for you? What is this wave and how expensive is it? Is the bang worth the buck? Toby Slough, Senior Pastor and Jim Kuykendall, Associate Pastor, will share their experiences.
• South Hills Bible Chapel outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. They just finished a new building … and they thought the work was over with the construction. Church growth issues, staff issues, governing board issues. So many people want to build a bigger worship center, but the cost is far more than the building. What is the complete price of a new building for your congregation?

We had 110 Church Leaders at the ’05 XP-Seminar. We had 150 leaders at the ’06 Seminar.

XPastor’s Unique Educational Format

Each Case Study will be accompanied by a 10-20 page report, detailing the facts. But, the facts only tell part of the story; the in-person dialogue allows you to ask the pivotal question that will help your ministry.

Hone your work as an XP or prepare to be an XP. Share your church experience and get quality feedback in the discussion sessions. Currently there are no seminaries or seminars to prepare you to be an XP or enhance your XP role. This seminar is an ideal ministry enhancement and resume builder as it gives advanced study on church leadership. The mornings examine the role of the XP and the afternoons feature case studies of significant XP ministries.

Existing XPs, Senior Pastors, academics and outside speakers address the nature and role of the XP. The host is David Fletcher with Nathan Baxter & Warren Schuh. The leaders come from churches of different sizes asNathan Baxter is an XP in a church of 700+ and leads the pivotal discussion sessions for churches of 300-1400. Warren Schuh is an XP of a church of 5000+ and guides the interaction times for XPs of churches with more than 1400 in worship.

This seminar is ideal for new XPs, those desiring an XP position and XPs who want to grow! This is also an excellent time to develop deeper relationships with other XPs, the seminar leaders and the special speakers. Who has recently asked you about your XP ministry? Where else can an XP and Senior Pastor come and be challenged about church leadership and management?
