If you haven’t listened to Episode 10 of the This is Sojourn Network podcast with Jamaal & Amber Williams (@jamberw), then you should go do that now. @revdaveharvey interviews them about their journey in the ministry and the Leaders’ Summit in Louisville next week would be a great place to meet up with them and share stories. You can find the podcast on iTunes or via the link in the photo. There’s still time to register for the Leaders’ Summit, the link is in our bio.
We’ve lined up speakers from all over the country with a variety of ministry backgrounds and experiences. Men and women from 25+ states who are leading innovative church ministries will be there. • We’re not just highlighting church planting and preaching and church ministry in general; instead, we're looking at how we can be a network of churches that grows and develops ministry that lasts? Keynote speakers and Intensives will drill down into the nitty-gritty of this vitally important topic. • If you’ve already registered, we’re busy preparing for your arrival in less than two weeks! If you haven’t yet, we have a spot waiting just for you.

Why will 50% of the ministers starting out today not last 5 years? - The Schaeffer Institute • One key question we want to highlight during our Leaders’ Summit is this: whether you're a preaching pastor, worship director, youth leader, executive pastor, Sunday school teacher, women's ministry director, or any other kind of leader, what does it take to sustain a ministry in such a way that it will flourish for the long haul? • We’ll explore the reality of sin and the impact of grace, learn how to minister as human beings, addressing the reality of our weakness and frailty in light of the gospel, and hear the stories of those who have gone before us. • Won’t you join us, October 23-25 in Louisville? We hope to see you there. [Link in bio]
