1 Love. Serve. Influence.

2 Thanks! Thanks for contacting me about participating in your event! We live in an ever-changing and diverse world. As a result, we need to communicate in new and relevant ways to help people discover life the way God intended. In this info packet you ll discover a lot of information about how I help leaders, teams, churches, and the spiritually curious connect with Christ, develop meaningful community, and impact their city. If you have any questions, please don t hesitate to send an to speaking@ericbryant.org and I ll make sure that you get an answer right away! Thanks again for considering me for your event About Dr. Eric Michael Bryant serves with Gateway Church in Austin as the team leader for the Central Austin region, the South Austin campus, and as part of the teaching team. From , he served as part of the leadership team at Mosaic in Los Angeles, a church known for its creativity and diversity. Prior to his time in Los Angeles, Eric was part of a church planting team in Seattle. Eric coaches church planters and campus pastors, teaches on Post Christian Ministry, and leads a cohort for a Doctorate of Ministry in Missional Effectiveness through Bethel Seminary where he earned his Doctorate of Ministry in Entrepreneurial Leadership. More on these opportunities can be found here. Eric and his wife, Deborah, live with their kids Caleb and Trevi near downtown in Austin, TX. My Story Growing up in a Christian home, I chose to follow Jesus and got baptized when I was 10 years old. At 17 I really began following Jesus on a daily basis when I realized loving Him meant loving others and changing how I lived my life. At that time I felt called into pastoral ministry. I served as a youth pastor while I was studying at Baylor University. After marrying my wife Deborah in 1994, we moved from Texas to Seattle where we helped plant a church while I completed my Masters of Divinity at Golden Gate Seminary. We served as part of the team at Mosaic in Los Angeles for almost 13 years. In 2010 I completed my Doctorate of Ministry in Entrepreneurial Leadership through Bethel Seminary. Since 2011, I have been serving as part of Gateway Church in Austin. I serve as the Geography Pastor for Central and South Austin plus I am on the teaching team. My heart is to see people experience the life-transforming love of God - whether they have been skeptics or following Jesus for years or anywhere in between. What I Do I see myself as an advocate on behalf of those who do not yet believe. I want to help church leaders, pastors, and church planters become more effective in outreach and discipleship in our post-christian world and communicate with audiences who are young in their faith or spiritually curious. My personal mission statement is to catalyze community, communicate Christ, and cultivate change agents. I enjoy speaking (retreats, Sunday services, conferences and breakouts), consulting with leadership teams, coaching leaders one-on-one, and through writing. I have written articles for magazines and websites such as Church Leaders, Catalyst and Gateway Leaders. I wrote Not Like Me: A Field Guide for Influencing a Diverse World (formerly entitled Peppermint-Filled Piñatas) and co-wrote The Uprising Experience with Erwin McManus and Rick Yamamoto.

3 What does that look like? I often speak on the following topics: Being on Mission and Engaging Neighbors Becoming Who We Are Created To Be Raising Up Leaders (Discipleship and Empowering Others) The first two topics work well as either a stand-alone presentations or they can also be expanded into multi session messages that include Q&A or discussion. Here are some sample messages from those topics that work well as a main session at conferences, retreats, university chapel, or in weekend church services: Title: Main Idea (length of presentation): Not Like Me Learning to love, serve, and reach our post-christian and diverse world. (30 min message up to a 90 min breakout) "Come As You Are" Creating a culture where people can belong even before they believe. (30 min message up to a 90 min breakout) "... But Don't Stay That Way" Creating a community where life change is the norm. (30 min message up to a 90 min breakout) Trajectory Seven ways to make the future better than the past. (30-45 min) *The Becoming series below can be done as either a single 60 min talk or be broken out individually. Becoming who you were created to be and helping others do the same We are designed to be transformed and to transform others. (30 min) Becoming Receptive Learning to hear God's voice and discover your calling. (30 min) Becoming Tenacious Overcoming the trials that keep us from living out our calling. (30 min) Becoming Intentional Discovering how to overcome the temptations that derail us. (30 min) Becoming Proactive Making the sacrifices necessary to become who we are created to be. (30 min) The third general topic is focused on training, encouraging and challenging church leadership (staff and lay leaders) and are best utilized in a multi-session event that incorporates leadership training on a weekend followed by an introduction to the general idea for the entire congregation during the Sunday worship services with examples including: Title: Main Idea (length of presentation): Catalyzing Community Bringing people together to make a difference in our world. (30 min message up to a 90 min breakout) Loving Unlikeable People God's love for others extends far beyond where we would like. (30-45 min inspirational talk) Raising Up Leaders Recruiting, Investing, and empowering God's people for Christ's mission. (30 min message up to a 90 min breakout) A Culture of Innovation Developing the internal, relational, and future-oriented skills to make an impact. (30 min message up to a 90 min breakout) Creating a Better Future Becoming like the early church and overcoming immorality, heresy, and conflict. (30-45 min inspirational talk) If you see something you are interested in for your event, please me so we can talk through the details based on your audience, desired outcome, requested length, etc. I can also provide training on Myers Briggs Temperament Indicator (understanding your personality), Gallup s Strengths Finder (understanding your uniqueness), or Erwin McManus Character Matrix (understanding areas for growth) as part of an outreach event or for a leadership team. Finally, I also perform stand up comedy for church leaders or as part of an outreach event. If time allows after I speak, I really enjoy interacting with people whether that is through a question and answer session, an informal discussion at the front of the room or in the hallway so if that is something you would like to consider please make sure to note that on the last page of the paperwork so I can plan accordingly.

4 What are people saying about Eric? Eric is a master of invisible leadership. He has learned the true art of leading leaders. This informs his writings and makes his contribution even more significant. Eric knows what he's talking about and he practices what he preaches. -Erwin McManus, Founder of MOSAIC, Los Angeles, CA Eric is someone whom I believe is a very important voice today as he is passionate about Jesus and truly understands mission and culture. Eric has spoken to our entire church and to our leaders and I highly recommend him for bringing a fresh and practical vision for mission and leadership in today s culture. -Dan Kimball, Pastor of Vintage Faith Church in Santa Cruz, CA Eric is a rare communicator who pulls in an audience with a sharp sense of humor and a gentle spirit. His love of the scriptures and passion for people create a powerful connection with all kinds of people! -Chris Seay, Pastor of Ecclesia Houston, President of Ecclesia Bible Society, Author of The Gospel According to Tony Soprano Eric has a great passion for people and The Lord. God has gifted him to communicate gospel truth in a way that is relevant and applicable to all generations. We have had the privilege of learning from Eric a few times on campus, and we look forward to hearing from his God-given wisdom in the future. -Chris Holloway, Director of Global Missions, Dallas Baptist University Eric Bryant is a Catalyst! He lives with reckless abandon in the constant pursuit of knowing, leading and becoming more like Jesus, and representing a fresh expression of the Gospel to those around him. You will experience what relational evangelism could, should and does look like Plan to walk away refreshed, energized and equipped with new lenses through which to see the world, your community, and your friends. -Brad Lomenick, Executive Director, Catalyst Eric Bryant is a gifted communicator and thinker on the front lines of leading and discipling Christ followers today. You'll find him funny, engaging, and thought-provoking. -Margaret Feinberg, Speaker and Author of Wonderstruck

5 What does it cost? Because of the need to balance the time requirements of his full time ministry work at Gateway, his teaching responsibilities, and spending quality time with his family the following is the requested rate for Eric Bryant to come and speak at your event $750 per main stage presentation (30 min to 1 hr in length) plus standard expenses $500 per breakout session plus standard expenses. Consulting and coaching fees are completely event and time specific so please include your requested breakdown of our time together (i.e. Myers Briggs, Gallup s StrengthsFinder, etc.), and I ll provide a custom price breakdown for you.

After I approve the agreement, you will receive a finalized copy of the paperwork along with a W-9 for your records. Upon receipt of that paperwork, a business check written to Eric Bryant to cover the deposit (50% of the total honorarium) will be due. After receiving the deposit we will communicate with you regarding the various logistical details as noted below under Standard Expenses. Recognizing that organizations operate on a limited budget, I am willing to discuss modified financial arrangements on a case-by-case basis. If you would like to be considered for a partial scholarship of the required honorarium amount (wouldn t apply to expenses) please provide me with the size and makeup of your audience, potential media exposure, your honorarium budget, the requested topic and why you believe Eric is the best speaker for your event via and we will get back with you.

Please note that the event schedule will dictate his arrival and departure flights to and from your event so the details provided in the paperwork below should be as inclusive as possible. The Tech I can work with pretty much whatever technical and staging setup that you have but if possible I d love to have a music stand for my notes, a stool, a wireless headset mic (handheld if headset isn t possible) that has already been checked and the ability to utilize presentation software. If your tech folks are able to run my presentation from the back of the room that is preferable but not required.
