Saturday Seminar
Smashing Through the 200 Barrier
The Princeton Church of Christ is please to host Dan Cooper speaking on
his thesis topic. This is going to be a unique opportunity for any
interested in the growth of local congregations of the Church.
Our mission from Jesus is clear, "Make Disciples". This
requires us to work in concert to get the gospel out to New Jersey and
the world. dan Cooper has been ministering in New Jersey since
1973. He has worked with the Pitman church of Christ for 25
years. They have overcome the invisible but universal American
experience of finding 200 a barrier to growth for the congregations.
His experiences is very relevant for us in Princeton since it
comes from our region of the country. You will find this a
fascinating subject with practical insights for us at Princeton.
We plan to begin with a time of fellowship over coffee and donuts
which will be provided at the building at 9:30am. Plan to be here
a few minutes early so we can started with a few songs followed by Dan
Cooper's presentation.
