Being Church in Uncharted Territory Annual Meeting Warm-Up Event
Friday, October 26, 2018
St. John Evangelical UCC - Collinsville
2 pm - 6 pm
Explorers Lewis and Clark had to adapt. While they had prepared to find a waterway to the Pacific Ocean, instead they found themselves in the Rocky Mountains. You, too, may feel that you are leading in a cultural context you were not expecting. You may even feel that your training holds you back more often than it carries you along.Drawing from his extensive experience as a pastor and consultant, Tod Bolsinger brings decades of expertise in guiding churches and organizations through uncharted territory. He offers a combination of illuminating insights and practical tools to help you re-imagine what effective leadership looks like in our rapidly changing world. If you're going to scale the mountains of ministry, you need to leave behind canoes and find new navigational tools. This workshop will set you on the right course to lead with confidence and courage. The class will be most effective if you have multiple people/leaders from the same church. Please consider bringing 4 or more to the class. The price has been made very affordable. Four or more people from the same church may attend for $100.
