January 2010 Leadership Forum draws 200
The Jan. 16 NWC Leadership Forum-entitled "The Heart of Racial Justice" and featuring Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil-drew approximately 200 people to First Covenant Church in St. Paul. The forum drew attendees from Covenant churches, as well as from other churches and organizations in the broader church in the Twin Cities.
During the morning session, Dr. Salter McNeil gave a presentation titled, "Embracing the Cultural Mandate of God." During the afternoon, she shared on the topic, "8 Habits of Inter-culturally Competent Leaders."
Rev. Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil is the author of the new book, "A Credible Witness: Reflections on Power, Evangelism and Race" (IV Press 2008). Through her speaking, teaching and writing, Dr. Salter McNeil boldly declares a vision that unites, transforms and brings healing to people from every tribe and every nation. Together with her husband, Dr. J. Derek McNeil and their two children, she stands at the forefront of an international movement to advance the Kingdom of God.
