NEW CHURCH, NEW WAY 1001/Vital Congregations gathering announces keynote speakers The keynote speakers for Perspectives: The Church Then Now Beyond (Oct. 14–16) in Kansas City, Missouri, are two powerhouses in church and culture: Gregory Ellison, the founder of Fearless Dialogues in Atlanta, engages people in hard conversations so that they see and hear gifts rather than stereotypes in others. Becca Stevens, the founder of Thistle Farms in Nashville, Tennessee, experienced loss and abuse as a child, which ultimately led her to open Thistle Farms for women who have experienced trafficking, abuse and addiction.
