The Art of Leadership Academy

Every month in The Art of Leadership Academy, I hop on a Live Coaching Call, where I coach leaders through today’s most relevant and pressing opportunities in ministry.

This month, we’re focussing on how your church can have its biggest Christmas ever—from outreach to follow-up, we’ll work through a strategy that brings new guests to your services and keeps them coming back in the new year. And, to end every call, we leave plenty of time aside for Q&A so your specific questions get answered.

To join the Live Coaching, you can sign up at theartofleadershipacademy.com. In addition to the Coaching, you’ll get access to all of my training programs on topics like Preaching, Outreach, Growth, Team Leadership, and more. I’d love to see you there!

TENX10

TENx10 has officially launched to reach over 10 million young people over the next 10 years. 

More than 1 million young people drift from the church and the abundant life Jesus has to offer them every year. This sobering reality is the very reason TENx10 was born. 

In the spirit of John 10:10, this collective of diverse denominations, organizations, and leaders is working to reconnect young people to a church community that desires to see them grow in their faith.

Visit TENx10.org to access the free resources to help reorient youth ministries around relational discipleship radically focused on Jesus. And follow their journey @tenx10collab on all social platforms as they champion the faith of the next generation.
