Oct. 12 - How to Prioritize Being a Disciple Over Being a Leader (with Hannah Absalom) - In the second of three webinars, Alex will be joined by his wife Hannah to delve into "How to Prioritize Being a Disciple over Being a Leader." Leadership in the church can be become all consuming - especially with all the political, societal and denominational turmoil of the past few years. Along the way, it can become easy to lose touch with our first love for Jesus. Alex and Hannah will share thoughts, practices and next steps on how to reset yourself as a disciple of Jesus above all else and encourage you to experience afresh the truth that God loves you for who you are rather than for what you do.
