Core Leader / Staff Development

Greg Baird’s first “boss” in ministry, John Maxwell, teaches that ”Everything rises & falls on leadership.” If this is true (and we believe it is), then intentionally developing leaders must be a high priority.  Your ministry will only rise to the level that your leadership team can take it.
