Date: Thursday, January 26, 2023 | 9:00am – 12:00pm
Hosts: Resurrection’s ShareChurch Ministry
Even under “normal” circumstances, the end of the year can be exhausting for ministry leaders, with unique demands that make it difficult to prepare for the year ahead. The experience of a global pandemic has only added to the complexity and challenges of leadership and self-care. Still, time marches on, and a new year is coming whether we are ready or not.
We get it, and we are ready to help. Start the new year with an infusion of encouragement, confidence, and clarity, by joining Dr. Rebeca Chow and Rev. Dr. Joshua Clough for a half-day of practical insights, tools and exercises that will get you pointed in the right direction and help you stay on course throughout the months ahead.
No matter your location or circumstances, this fully online event is for you. Come alone, or bring your partner, friends, or team. We can’t wait to help you re-group, re-charge and refresh – so you can face 2023 knowing you’ve got this, and you’re not alone!
This online training takes place from 9am-12pm Central Time, with 4 sessions focused on preparing you for the year ahead. Learn more in Session Descriptions.
With a Host Site registration, you can gather up to 10 people at your church to engage in the online conference together. You will receive one link to watch on the day of the event (for use on up to 2 screens). Share the link with your participants after the event for On Demand Replay over the next 6 months (the unique watch link works for 2 screens at a time).
Your team can gather together for a time of strategic planning and debriefing during the lunch break and after the event ends. This is a great opportunity to learn the material and then dream together about how you might implement the principles you learn.
The cost of a Host Site registration for a group of 10 is $225. Have more than 10 participants? Please contact us for additional options.
