Speaking

“Steve Knight is a trustworthy guide into missional church space.”
—Brian McLaren, author and activist

I enjoy opportunities to speak on a variety of topics, and I’d be interested in considering an invitation to speak at your conference or to your church, organization, community group, business, etc.

 

Currently …

• I am actively involved in the emerging missional church conversation/movement and am interested in speaking to different groups, especially those interested in learning more about TransFORM, a missional community formation network, and Hope Partnership for Missional Transformation.
• I speak occasionally on social media marketing (corporate) and cause marketing (non-profit), as well as the intersection of communication and mission, what I’ve dubbed “kingdom journalism.”

Previously I have spoken at:

• Soularize 2011, San Diego, California, October 2011 (workshop on “Funding the Emerging Missional Church”)
• 2011 General Assembly of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), Nashville, Tennessee, July 2011 (helped organize and spoke at the Missional Church learning track)
• Inhabit Conference, Seattle, Washington, April 2011 (co-led workshops with Tripp Fuller and Phil Shepherd)
• Big Tent Christianity, Phoenix, Arizona, February 2011 (co-led workshops with Anthony Smith on forming missional communities)
• TransFORM East Coast Gathering, Wesley Theological Seminary, Washington, D.C., April 2010 (Watch videos of the main sessions »)

• Everything Must Change, Charlotte, NC, February 2008
