On The Go Events

You and your church ministry team are invited to join us for a time of fellowship and encouragement. We know you are busy, so we are coming to you!

Ministry and "Monsters": The Calm of Christian Courage

Join us as we reflect on the virtue of courage for ministry leaders. What exactly IS courage, and how does Scripture lead us to think about courage as a habit of character in a tense environment? We will consider biblical counsel from 1 Peter and how this short book may help us live out a Christian vision of courage in our various ministry contexts.

We would love to hear from some of you for suggestions for two Spring 2024 locations. It really helps us to have someone who can connect us to local ministry networks as we promote the events. If you would like to host an OTG event and are willing to invite local ministers and volunteer leaders, contact us at churchrelations@lcu.edu.
