			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This afternoon <a href="http://jeffmangum.wordpress.com/">Jeff</a> and I had a phone meeting with <a href="http://www.pastorfairchild.com/">David Fairchild</a> who is an Elder at <a href="http://www.kaleochurch.com/">Kaleo Church</a> in <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">paradise</span> San Diego. We&#8217;ve been impressed with Kaleo and how they do ministry as they seem to be a church that is really trying to start a movement by doing church in various domains in SD and not just a Sunday attraction. Although they do have Sunday experiences. I guess they are a model to us. We can have Sunday gathering, but also build a missional DNA and not let Sunday become a bottleneck in which a bunch of Christians listening to some &#8220;cool&#8221; speaker talk about missional living.</p>
<p>		I&#8217;ve said it before, but It&#8217;s so vital to learn from other leaders. It&#8217;s also important to realize that all leaders and churches are struggling to go to the next level. Church planting is messy, it&#8217;s hard, you have to adapt on the fly. You can read books and attend conferences and listen to podcasts, but the best form of learning comes from conversations from those who are in the midst of church planting. They understand the frustrations and wars that a planter goes through. That is priceless in my book.</p>
<p>		So props to David Fairchild for spending time with us, we learned a lot and gained much encouragement.</p>
