UPCOMING WEBINAR

Black Leadership Lessons from across the Disciplines

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY
1PM ET/12PM CT

Celebrate Black History Month with a panel of church leaders as they discuss leadership, hospitality, faith, and the future of the church.


Black History Month honors the faithful leaders who came before, but it also reminds us that contemporary generations of Black leaders are still blazing trails, breaking ground, and scaling mountains through their creativity, scholarship, and service. Join us as we bring together innovative and passionate Black Christian leaders across multiple disciplines to share what has motivated, encouraged, and, at times, frustrated them in their leadership. Their journeys in the church, academia, and the arts will give you practical wisdom for creating, serving, and leading in a variety of contexts.
