Other leaders are disheartened by competing values and priorities. How a church makes decisions greatly impacts the willingness of gifted leaders to engage and, in turn, the resulting missional effectiveness of the church. In this webinar, Kay will unpack how structure can change the trajectory of your church and why more leaders are finding renewed hope in leading churches with a simplified, accountable structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kay is the author\/co-author of several books, including\u00a0<em>Mission Possible 4,\u00a0Mission Possible for the Small Church,\u00a0\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>Becoming the Church People Choose.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clergyeducation.com\/events\/2607sas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register Now<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div
