Leader Development Series - Liberty Corner Presbyterian Church

Session 1: Lead with Kingdom Vision

Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle

Liberty Corner Church's mission statement is "to make disciples who make disciples."

Session 2: Lead by Following Jesus

Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle

Let us always remember that our salvation does not depend on what we do for God, but what Christ has done for us. We cannot earn God's love or our salvation. What we do in God's kingdom has eternal significance.

Session 3: Lead Ministry with a Plan

Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle

If you are leading a ministry you will find the best success if you have a clear plan.

Session 4: Lead People with Purpose

Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle

Leading people starts with recruiting. Sometimes we fear there are too few people to help lead, so we are tempted to grab any "warm body" to fill roles. We want to recruit volunteers and leaders based on character, passion, ability, and impact. If you team has passion about your mission, ability to move forward, and a clear positive impact, people will want to join!

Session 5: Lead Through Conflict

Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle

Conflict can arise because of human sin and brokenness, but conflict can also arise because people have different perspectives, values, and goals. Often, our sin and brokenness worsen a disagreement into a destructive battle, but working through the disagreement itself can be a healthy exercise to broaden our perspective, consider our values, and identify our goals together.

Session 6: Lead Great Meetings

Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle

Leading great meetings is not magic. It simply takes some preparation!

Session 7: Leadership Covenant

Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle

A leadership covenant sets clear standards for our leaders. If we agree to the same standards, then we can hold one another accountable.
