Spiritual Leadership Generator
Overview
Learn what it means to be a spiritual leader and live into your calling! The Spiritual Leadership Generator is a process for developing everyday followers of Jesus into spiritual leaders. We’ll look at biblical leadership through the life of Christ and dive into what it means to apply these concepts in our lives. This training integrates some of the SLI teachings around teams and around how to behave as a leader, not just the theological and biblical training, but why leadership and being a Christian go together. It’s a deep theological education designed at a lower shelf, not a watered down version.
