TRANSITIONS is a VIRTUAL conference focused on helping church leaders (i.e.: pastors, associate pastors, discipleship pastors, education pastors, age-group pastors, men’s and women ministry leaders, and ministry volunteers) equip the church to make disciples as they move forward following a year of challenges and obstacles. Content will focus upon helping the church and church leaders’ transition to:

  1. A New World – The culture of the church, community, and world has experienced radical change. How will churches and leaders respond to these new church and community transitions?
  2. A New Way of Thinking – Responding to this new world will require a new way of thinking. Evaluating past paradigms and the creation of new paradigms that remain theological sound and solidly focused on the gospel message will be needed. How will you respond personally and emotionally to these transitions?
  3. A New Work – Churches will work differently in order to make disciples. Leaders will work differently in order to equip the church. What will this new work look like?

Includes entire event, all BACE benefits, and access for one-year!
