Living as Spiritual Transformational Leaders Spiritual Transformational Leaders engage others in abundant Christian love that transforms lives wherever they go.

 

The GROW! Curriculum is designed to meet the criteria for use by Lay Servant Ministries as well as within the life of leadership in a local church. It specifically addresses best practices for leading in liminal spaces – caught between what used to work and what we don’t know will work yet. The focus for the first four sessions is on the development of personal leadership practices. The second four sessions look more closely at personal leadership within community.

 

1. Practicing the Presence                                 

2. Gratitude and   Extravagant Generosity

4. Living as Spiritual Transformational Leaders
