CI Confronting the Issues, November 25, 2009
A discussion, with my guest, the Rev. Lyle Beckman, San Francisco Night Minister, regarding updated outreach strategies for our post modern world. The old techniques (chick tracts, "turn or burn," etc.) do not work well today. The discussion centers on bringing people, mainly the non-church affiliated person, into a faith community. The discussion will rely heavily on Rev. Beckman's experience ministering in the late hours, on San Francisco's streets.
CI Confronting the Issues
Live from the Leland Tea Company, in San Francisco.
Bringing a progressive faith perspective to the issues of the day.
The unconventional is nothing new for Recia Ann Young, host and moderator for CI: Confronting the Issues. Ordained through an independent, evangelical tradition, Rev. Young hardly matches the typical political and social views of that tradition. She would describe herself as a believer in the value and worth of all people, and that Christ was the epitome of demonstrating the unconditional love and acceptance of the divine. She would say, she is striving to follow Jesus’ model.
