The Crossroads Project Speaker's Bureau

	Gary DeLashmutt Crossroads Project Speaker Gary DeLashmutt is one of the founders and lead pastors of Xenos Christian Fellowship in Columbus, Ohio. He received his B.A. from The Ohio State University and an M.A. in Religious Studies from Ashland Theological Seminary.
	Gary is available to speak on the following topics:
	"How Can Jesus Be the Only Way To God?" This talk is a critique of religious relativism as well as a defense of Jesus' claim to be the world's only Savior. After tracing the roots of religious relativism and how it has changed the meaning of terms like "tolerance," I critique it as intellectually untenable and often personally dishonest. I conclude with a challenge to take Jesus' claims seriously. (This talk is for both Christians and non-Christians, and is part of a series on "Contemporary Objections to Christianity.")

	"Keys To An Effective Home Group Ministry" Are you a pastor or leader who wants to make home groups the most important element in your church work? Drawing on more than 20 years of experience leading a large home-group based church, I explain the crucial principles for a home group ministry that reaches people for Christ and equips them to be effective workers. This talk is part of a two-part or four-part series on effective local church ministry. (For pastors and workers.)

	"Effective Evangelistic Expository Preaching" Is it possible to communicate effectively in the same teaching to both Christians and seekers? What are the advantages of expository teaching over topical series? This talk answers these questions, and explains how to develop expository teachings that simultaneously reach seekers and challenge Christians. (For pastors and workers.)
