Somersault (@smrsault) is attending Q’s (@Qideas) 5th annual Gathering (#QDC) today through Thursday in Washington, DC. According to its own description, “Q was birthed out of Gabe Lyons’ (@GabeLyons) vision to see Christians, especially leaders, recover a vision for their historic responsibility to renew and restore cultures.”
Q explores topics that fall into 4 broad themes: culture, future, church, and gospel. Q facilitates the investigation of deeper engagement and responsibility in each of these areas. As we continue to work through these ideas on a deeper level, so grows our commitment to equipping innovators, social entrepreneurs, entertainers, artists, church-shapers, futurists, scientists, educators, historians, environmentalists and everyday people to do extraordinary things. At Q Ideas, you'll see a broad spectrum of content represented in our small group curriculum, videos, and articles. These are all contributed and commissioned to shed light on unique areas of culture and the church.
Q is a place where leaders from every sphere of society gather to learn, reflect, collaborate and take action to renew culture. We share a common commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ and an awareness of our calling by God to join him in his redeeming work throughout every channel of culture.
Free live streaming of the opening and closing presentations is available this morning and tonight. Speakers and their topics include
· Gabe Lyons, Founder of Q: “Ideas for the Common Good”
· Andy Crouch (@ahc), Author: “Power”
· Mark Batterson (@MarkBatterson), Pastor of National Community Church: “Church & Place”
· David Brooks (@DavidBrooksNYT), Columnist, The New York Times: “Humility”
