Their Story is Our Story…
PLI gave me a vision of what it looks like as a woman to lead alongside my husband and the tools I needed to identify the opportunities God was inviting me into. The coaching was invaluable in giving me encouragement and accountability. My life and ministry are different as a result of PLI!
Having accepted the call to Our Redeemer a year prior, I wanted to pursue leadership development that would equip me for the new opportunities and challenges. My District President told me about district assistance available for this program (PLI) that would equip both me AND the congregation for ministry in a new era. How grateful I’ve been as this new era’s been amplified to a whole new level!
Growing up and jumping into pastoral ministry in the “Roaring ’90s” has bigger and better very much ingrained in my mindset. What I consistently heard through PLI and have become convinced of is that we need to learn from Jesus’ model. Large groups matter, but life change and transformation typically happens in more intimate gatherings. I need to prioritize individual and small-group relationships.
PLI has changed how I view and do ministry in so many ways. Specifically, I have been able to apply the skills and information learned in how our church focuses on ministry and serving the Kingdom of God. It has led me to a different view of the challenges and situations that I have had to face as a sole pastor with the in-depth immersions and the monthly small group follow-ups. It is a privilege to walk through the good and the stresses to build up the Kingdom of God. It has also been a huge benefit to take this journey with my wife so that we can grow together through the process. It is so evident how the hand of God is at work in all things.
Biblically based, Immersive in experience, Focused on You!
Our biblically-based leadership training occurs in a community of your peers (Learning Communities), and is intentionally designed to be an immersive experience, and delivered to enable you to take what you’ve learned, create actionable plans, and incorporate them back into your daily rhythms, which is then supported by our coaching in between each “immersion.”
