Guest Speaker: Ed Stetzer (November 13th & 15th – Ballard)
Mars Hill is very honored to welcome Dr. Ed Stetzer to come and preach God’s Word to us. I have known Ed as a personal friend for a number of years as we served together on the board for the Acts 29 Church Planting Network. Since Ed is in town teaching at our Resurgence Training Center, I invited him to join us on Sunday and preach from the pulpit.
In addition to preaching at Mars Hill on Sunday and teaching at ReTrain over the weekend, Ed agreed to do a very special free event for everyone at Mars Hill and in Seattle. On Friday night Ed will be spend an evening educating us on mission. In my opinion, there are few better people to learn on this topic from, so if you go to Mars Hill or live in Seattle, then please come join us this Friday from 7-9pm at the Ballard campus.
Dr. Stetzer has planted, pastored, and revitalized numerous churches. He has trained pastors and church planters on five continents, holds two master’s degrees and two doctorates, and has written dozens of articles and books.

Ed is Visiting Professor of Research and Missiology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Visiting Research Professor at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and has taught at fifteen other colleges and seminaries. He also serves on the Church Services Team at the International Mission Board. He is one of the leading thinkers on the earth in the areas of evangelism, church planting, and movements.
