Upcoming Virtual Seminars
Family Leadership Seminar
Participants will examine God’s plan for the leaders and their families. The lesson will help leaders recognize the value of their family relationships and invest in them as the foundation of successful leadership. Godly leadership at home is a requirement for leadership in the church. (1 Tim. 3:4-5)
God’s call to family leadership always comes before His call to ministry leadership. In this Family Leadership Seminar, you will learn how to manage priorities between your relationships with God, family, and ministry. You will learn the biblical and practical priority of a family and be able to develop an Action Plan to strengthen your family relationships.
Your family leadership has a great impact on your ministry leadership. Because the way you lead your family will often be the way that you lead people. Understanding God’s plan for you and your family will help you prioritize your family as a leader.
