This past week has been a difficult one for Southern Baptists. Let’s be sure to pray for each other and for those in leadership.  Building a Culture of Prayer in an Association - Webinar, 3:00-4:30pm EDT, August 31
Associations should be committed to prayer just like individuals and churches. I hope you will plan to hear from AMSs Dr. John Franklin, Dr. Tim Smith, and Dr. Bob Lowman discuss “Building a Culture of Prayer in an Association” on August 31. These men of prayer are advocates of prayer in their associations, but they do so in different ways. NAMB and SBCAL are partnering together to offer a Pre-Conference for New AMSs with less than two years in this role.
If you have already registered for the NAMB AMS Excellence Lab and want to attend this Pre-Conference, fill out the form below to be added to the group. If you have not registered yet, complete the form, and I will send you an invitation if the NAMB AMS Lab is not full. “Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before obscure men” (Proverbs 22:29 NASB).
Wise people learn from watching others and studying about their craft. The CSB Study Bible says about being skilled, “To be skilled is to be experienced, learned, efficient, and accurate in one’s vocation.” The Associational Leader Needs to Lead
When I first became an associational leader 30 years ago, the two terms “associational,” and “leader” were seldom, if ever, used together. We were either called “Associational Missionaries,” or “Directors of Missions.” I do not remember anyone calling me an “Associational Leader.” |
