    2022-12-20T11:32:00Z

    For many of us, leadership is a by-product of youth and children’s work. But we want to lead well, so each month we unpack an issue we face as leaders, and offer some guidance to traverse it.

    Managing your church’s hopes and dreams

    2022-08-26T09:15:00Z

Specifically, we are different because we are open to the spiritual. Not just in a vague way but within a precise, theological framework.

    2022-08-26T08:55:00Z

    There’s a story in Exodus 17 of a time when Israel were at war against the Amalekites. The Bible tells us that “as long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning, but when he lowered his hands, the Amalekites were winning” (Exodus 17:11).

    Where are we going?

    2022-06-30T12:04:00Z
