CityReaching Conf-Call Guest... Jim Herrington, Mission Houston

[cut/paste from an email invite...]

Jim Herrington will speak on the topic ”The relationship between personal and city transformation” for our next City Transformation Resources Conference Call offered by the Mission America Coalition City/Community Ministries on Thursday, August 20 at 11 a.m. Eastern Time. If you would like to be a part of this informative call, please RSVP to info@cityreaching.com and Carolyn O'Brien will send you the phone number and pin code for this call.

Jim is the founding Executive Director and Chairman of the Board of Mission Houston. He is committed to the transformation of the city. The mission of Mission Houston is to develop missional leaders who are committed to the transformation of the greater Houston area. These leaders are deployed to Houston’s most poverty stricken neighborhoods. Mission Houston has made a 10 year commitment to the transformation of Houston’s public schools.

He is co-author with James Furr and Mike Bonem of Leading Congregational Change: A Practical Guide for the Transformational Journey (2000). He also is co-author with Robert Creech and Trisha Taylor of The Leader’s Journey: Accepting the Call to Personal and Congregational Transformation (2003). He also served as contributing author to City Reaching: On the Road to Community Transformation (1999) by Jack Dennison.

He holds a BS in Psychology from the University of Arkansas and a Masters in Education from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas.

Jim says about himself: “Jesus is my King, and I love His Church. I have lived in a very authentic community of followers of Jesus for a decade. I work for justice, live simply and embrace equality. I am committed to reconciliation, and I live a radically inclusive life.”
