Imagine. Young people equipped to be led more by Jesus, to lead more like Jesus and to lead more to Jesus in their churches, at school and college – and at home.
Leadership is a proven factor in growing, healthy churches and research shows that the teenage years are the key time to invest in people as leaders. These beliefs are at the heart of Growing Leaders Youth Edition.
Key to the thinking of Growing Leaders Youth Edition, “all leadership involves influence. But will this influence be for good or bad? Will it grow Christ-likeness in others or destroy people’s ability to trust? Character will determine the difference. It can be problematic when someone is ‘successful’ before they are ready for success. Any model of leadership development that ignores character will risk people growing in skills without the necessary character to support such skills.”
Growing Leaders is more than just another course - its comprehensive approach focuses on:
- Leadership rooted in Christ;
- Key skills for leadership - in its many forms;
- Long-term commitment to leadership
Through interactive teaching, mentoring and practical projects, Growing Leaders helps churches find and develop young leaders passionate for God and His work.
