More about LEAD

It’s in the name.

Living Everyday As Disciples.

For people of faith, we believe that leadership and discipleship are inextricably intertwined.

When you work with LEAD, you will deepen your discipleship – your worship life, your engagement with scripture, your prayer life, spiritual practices, stewardship, and your trust that God can make all things possible. And by deepening your discipleship, you will grow as a leader, a congregation, a judicatory or an organization.
