Growing Leaders introduction
An introduction to the Growing Leaders course, with views from leaders and participants.
'We need a church where people are helped to take up leadership roles, and equipped to carry them out with confidence and skill ... We need a church where we grow leaders of every age - children, young people and adults.'
Growing Leaders - reflections on leadership, life and Jesus by James Lawrence
Why grow leaders?
Leadership is a proven factor in growing, healthy churches. Yet so many churches struggle to find leaders. People are busy. Time is limited.
Where can churches find help? The Growing Leaders course.
'No learning experience has been more effective in making room for God to stir the hearts of leaders in our church! Growing Leaders helped us develop a shared biblical vocabulary and framework for the challenge and adventure of leadership, it kept us focused on God's agenda for our leaders rather than our own, and it has fostered meaningful relationships among participants, mentors, and course facilitators.'
(Trevor Seath, Bridletowne Park Church)
