If you're responsible for leading or developing the group ministry at your church, your training and networking needs are radically different than those of your staff and volunteers. That's why the Group Life Conference offers a premium Point Leader Track designed around your unique role.
Point Leader General Sessions: By choosing the Point Leader track, you’ll attend one of three Point Leader General sessions on Thursday morning with Alan Hirsch, Mark Buchanan, or Ron Martoia. As a bonus, you’ll receive a code to hear all three Point Leader General sessions online after the conference. We’ll even include the General Conference session with Bill Donahue and Henry Cloud… We don’t want you to miss anything! Be sure to specify the one you’d like to attend when you register:
Session PL-G1: The Forgotten Ways
Alan Hirsch: The Forge/St. Kilda, Victoria, Australia
A teacher and key strategist for churches across the western world, Alan Hirsch unpacks the thinking behind his latest book The Forgotten Ways. Examine the “mDNA” of great movements in history to find essential elements needed to reactivate the power of the missional church and genuine transformation of our worlds for Jesus.
Session PL-G2: Sustainability: The Rest of God
Mark Buchanan: New Life Community Baptist/Duncan, B.C.
Endless demands and stifling routines leave many in ministry feeling ransacked by a lack of time. Mark Buchanan, pastor and author of The Rest of God, contends we don’t need more time, but an understanding of God’s ordained rhythm of work and rest. Explore the gifts of stillness, Sabbath and sustainability.Session PL-G3: Leading Change
Ron Martoia: Velocity Culture/Jackson, MI
One of a leader’s most critical and difficult roles is leading through a period of deep or rapid change—keeping old systems functioning while designing and implementing new ones. Ron Martoia is a “transitional architect” who helps churches “shift paradigms from the old Newtonian world to the Quantum world of the 21s century.”
Point Leader Breakouts: The Point Leader track connects you with internationally known experts, practitioners, and thought leaders in a more intimate setting. Choose two Point Leader Breakouts from 28 options — one for Thursday afternoon and another Friday morning. Click on the link below to view all the breakout options.
Space is extremely limited — no more than 45 participants in each breakout. Register early to secure your top choices.
