WORK OF THE COMMITTEE
The Effective Biblical Leadership Team works to foster a culture of Christ-centered leadership in the EPC. We believe effective biblical leaders are people of increasingly Christlike character whose example and passion inspire others to follow Christ. As we provide resources and learning opportunities, we focus on developing leaders who are rooted in the love of God in Christ, continually growing in their love for God and others. Much of our work is done online, as we produce webinars that address various topics and highlight resources we hope our Presbytery and local leaders will utilize as they see fit.
One of the newest resources available to EPC pastors and congregations is the Sabbatical Planning Toolkit from PIR Ministries. The EPC has purchased this toolkit so that EPC pastors and their Sessions can plan for a sabbatical that will be a blessing to both pastor and congregation.
RECOMMENDATIONS (DETAILED)
The Effecitve Biblical Leadership Team has no recommendations to present to the 45th General Assembly.
