The Webinar helped me put into words things that were going on. I didn't know it was happening, but now that I reflect on it, I do. I left the webinar asking better questions to help me work through the challenge I was facing.

Managing Grief and Loss During Communal Change
We all know it: change means something is lost, even if what’s gained is better, healthier, and more aligned with God’s Design. Helping communities identify that sense of loss, to grieve it, and be able to move on in life together is vital for thriving. In this webinar, we’ll explore ways that you can help your community grow their emotional and spiritual maturity so that your congregation can faithfully filter and adapt in a constantly changing world.

Finding Your Footing in the Midst of Change
When everything is changing, from your church, denomination, the country and the world, how do you even start to filter and adapt in helpful ways?
By finding our footing with God and your leadership group, you can take the next step together.
In this one hour webinar we’ll explore how to Get on the Balcony with your leaders in order to find God's sure foundation in your context. What has God Designed for your church to pursue in service and ministry? Who has God Designed you to be? Learn how to get clarity about these questions as you try out some ideas, observe, learn and discover that unique thing that only your congregation can witness to the world.

Having an Appropriate Support System as a Leader
What does your support system look like as a leader? Do you have a constellation of support? Are there places, spaces, and relationships outside your community to process what’s happening within your community? How are your spiritual practices and habits sustaining you?
As change happens, some of the things we took for granted are no longer available; how do we avoid neglecting what is vital? Join us to talk about the role counter systems play for adaptive leaders, do an audit on your current support system, and make a plan to develop a counter system focused on collaboration, mutual support, and a shared commitment to God's purposes.

Getting to Clarity: The Power of Mental Models in a Congregation
Knowledge and understanding of mental models (ours and theirs) help get our churches and organizations to greater clarity. Where are we going? What is a next faithful step? How do we get into action? These challenging questions are helped to be answered when we understand the assumptions, beliefs and automatic responses that we have and the people around us. Getting clear begins with understanding the assumptions we are making and the beliefs we hold.

Creating Good Process: How We Co-Create
Is your church dreaming about how to join God in mission but struggling to turn those dreams into lasting change? You're not alone. Many churches struggle to see God's vision for their emerging future and also find themselves stuck when it comes to implementation. Good process is the scaffolding that helps you discern, co-create, and implement your ministry goals. This webinar offers practical frameworks that honor faithful, prayerful discernment and effective action—tools that help your congregation or group move from "wouldn't it be wonderful if..." to "here's how we will make it happen."

Leading Yourself: Disrupting Reactivity and your Autopilot
Learning to manage yourself and disrupting your own automatic behaviors is one of the most effective tools of leadership you have. How do we interrupt our usual patterns and disrupt our reactivity? What helps us engage our best thinking when tension rises, the stakes are high, or we simply don’t know what to do next?
This webinar examines some of the tools we use to shift ourselves from automatic reaction to thoughtful response.

Spinning Wheels Gather No Traction:
Metrics for Measuring and Planning
Having clarity of purpose is foremost to being a vital congregation, but a church that does not measure progress will lack understanding of how it is doing and find it nearly impossible to lead change. In this webinar you will learn how to count resources and measure effectiveness toward becoming a vital community in today’s world.

Healthy Feedback Culture: Transformational Leadership in Congregations
We can grow our emotional maturity so that we can given and receive feedback in transformational ways.
What is the most appropriate way to give and receive feedback? Should consistory entertain an anonymous letter? How can congregation members express their concerns? We’ve received a complaint, how do we handle it in a way that does not derail us and allows us to discern wisely how to stay on mission? Join us to explore these questions and more!

Who Are You Becoming While You Lead?Spiritual Practices and Emotional Maturity for Faithful Leadership
Leading through change is not just about skills and strategies, but about who we are becoming along the way. This seminar invites church leaders to tend to their inner life by cultivating spiritual practices and growing emotional maturity that sustain faithful leadership in anxious and changing times. Together, we will explore how formation beneath the surface shapes our capacity to lead with presence, resilience, and trust in God.
