Leadership transitions are part of every long-lived church’s story.

Barna data has shown that these baton-passing moments can be a negative or mixed experience for churchgoers. But when you lead with an eventual transition in mind, you can prime your church for a healthy, impactful future.

That’s why we’ve teamed up with Glenn Packiam, Rich Villodas and Tara Beth Leach to host a free webinar called “The Succession Plan: Why Every Pastor Needs One (And Three Ways You Can Start One Today).” This webinar also features an interview with special guest, Todd Proctor.

Enjoy this webinar that is filled with data and expert insights that will help you strengthen your ministry both today and for years to come.
