Online - The Public Leader programme: taster session
@
Evangelical Alliance Public Leader programme taster.
Are you fuelled by a desire to make an impact in your professional field and the world, but don’t know where to begin? As an emerging leader in today’s complex environment, there can be a lot to navigate.

However, we firmly believe in the power of small beginnings – individuals who begin with nothing more than a resounding ?“Yes” to God and the courage to step forth in faith. We believe that it’s critical to have culture-shaping leaders in every sector of society – from arts and education to engineering and politics – to those who love Jesus, understand each other, and collaborate prayerfully for the strategic advancement of God’s kingdom.

That’s where the Public Leader programme comes in. We’ve created this programme to provide you with the necessary tools, strong support, and nurturing community you need to navigate these challenges with grace and confidence, all while embodying Jesus’s teachings and leading by His Spirit.

Online - Releasing Artists to Renew Culture
@
Artists are a huge blessing to our world and they can also be a huge blessing to our churches. Sputnik: Faith & Arts have put together a course for Christians, especially those in church leadership, to think through how our churches can more fruitfully engage with the arts and support artists.
The course is called 'Releasing Artists to Renew Culture'. It will be launched on Monday 29th April as a one-off Zoom event.
Hopefully, you'll go away envisioned and encouraged and, as we pray for artists to be released to renew culture, you may experience artists released who will renew you!

In-Person - THINK 2024: Reaching Post-Christians - London
@King’s Church London, 21 Meadowcourt Road, London
How does the Western church not merely survive, but thrive, in this particular moment in history? How do we reach post-Christians: the nones, the dones, the not-yet-wons, our daughters and sons? Some of the answers, of course—prayer, evangelism, discipleship, hospitality, service, the power of the Spirit—are the same as they have always been. But others might require theological, historical and cultural reflection: on how and why we got here, what challenges and opportunities are before us, and how we might respond to them.
So we are going to spend some time thinking about all this. We will be joined by the outstanding duo of Rebecca McLaughlin (author of Confronting Christianity, The Secular Creed, and several other excellent books) and Rachel Gilson (author of Born Again This Way) to help us. The conference will be hosted by Andrew Wilson (King’s Church, London) and will include plenary sessions, breakout discussions, meals together, and time for Q&A.
