Collin Outerbridge: Building a Multicultural, Multigenerational Church

There's something about a unifying vision that is greater than our preferences, that is focused on serving our community, that I think has led to a strong sense of connectivity that's allowed our church to grow and to impact people right here where we live.

Dave Ferguson: Multiplying Leaders

Every leader needs to have an apprentice. Even the lead pastor, as you're thinking about what's next, you need to have an apprentice so you can put that person in that role and you can commission them to go.

Nicole Martin: A Different Kind of Leadership

When I go to a great restaurant and it’s really good, no one ever has to tell me, “Could you let other people know?” I cannot wait to tell other people, first of all, that I've been, and second of all, how good the food is. I think we have lived our Christian lives on the periphery of God's grace and goodness and favor for so long that we don't know how good the food is for ourselves.

Clay Scroggins: Leading When You Lack Authority

Dave Ferguson: An Unprecedented Opportunity

“I would love for our definition of success to be determined not just by size, but by multiplication.”

Peyton Jones: The Lost Art of Mission—Part 1

“The church has neutered itself by trying to do ministry behind four walls. The lost art is doing what the apostles and Jesus did.”

Peyton Jones: The Lost Art of Mission—Part 2

"What they want is what the church isn’t offering: mission. If we will lead the way, they will follow."
