In this seminar we will examine the opportunity before the church to give the next generation opportunities to lead. We will examine how this happens as seasoned leaders mentor younger leaders and allow them to lead in their churches. The session will conclude with a panel discussion from some of our churches who are giving away the church to the next generation.

Challenges & Opportunities in Taiwan
June 13, 2022 • Ben Hosch
Taiwan is a global leader in microchip technology, but also home to 15,000 temples and strong traditional religious beliefs. Taiwan has religious freedom and some large churches, but only 3.3% of the population is Evangelical Christian. Taiwan has a growing pool of intellectual leaders, but also a large unreached, grassroots, working-class population. How is LBIM focusing on evangelism and outreach in response to these demographic shifts in Taiwan?
The Posture of Disciple-Making
June 13, 2022 • Tony Rogness
What is the posture of a disciple-maker? Sometimes it is hard to know how to approach the role of disciple-maker, but the posture we start from can make all the difference. Join us as we explore the foundations of our approach to making disciples, starting with our own place in this process, using the imagery from Psalm 1.
Discipleship & Shepherding of Women
June 13, 2022 • Gretchen Ronnevik
From the sexual revolution, to debate over Biblical womanhood, women returning to the workplace, the homeschooling movement among Christians, to the #MeToo movement: inter-generational discipleship of women has become harder and disjointed, and distance is often created between women and their pastors. It often leads to either workaholic participation in church or complete disengagement. We’ll talk about these various challenges to the goal: getting the gospel to women and disciplining them in sound doctrine.
