There's a blurb on Sattler College - I wonder who will be presenting.

Based on my conversations with the Bostonians last year and conversations I have had since, they are going in a different direction - they primarily see KFW as an opportunity to evangelise and stake out ground for new converts (which is not entirely a bad thing, a lot of people at KFW don't have any home church), but they are not on board with KFW's ecumenical approach to things like baptism and marriage.
Evangelize whom, Anabaptists?

I'm pleased to report there was way, way less of this at KFW this year. Overall it was a positive experience and one I was glad I had friends come to, as opposed to cringing and wondering what I'd just got them into.

Tell us about it! What was it like? What did you like best?

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?

I'd also like to know about the event, I've never been to a gathering larger than my local house church. (For anyone who's interested, there are recordings on their website, kingdomfellowshipweekend.org)
