Rooted and Built Up

Rooted and Built Up in Him

As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him, and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. (Colossians 2:6-7)

To excel as Christian leaders in today’s complex world, we must be both deeply rooted in Christ and strongly connected so that “we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.” (Heb. 10:24).

That’s why the theme for The Outcomes Conference 2019 is “ROOTED.”

This year Christian Leadership Alliance has something very especial planned to kick off  day one of the the Three-day Experience.

 Leadership Lab Intensive

On Tuesday, April 16, you’ll experience a NEW “Leadership Lab Intensive” featuring nine short and dynamic keynote talks, and 18 information-packed Leadership Lab afternoon workshops. That entire day is focused on your development as a Christian leader! This is an incredible experience to share with your staff and emerging leaders within your organization.  Shared experiences will always increase accountability and the implementation of new ideas

This dynamic Leadership Lab — Intensive will offer big ideas for Christian leaders like you. This full-day experience features some of today’s most innovative Christian leadership thinkers, and will explore a wide spectrum of topics related to being rooted as Christian leaders today. We’ll examine vital trends, creative challenges and unique opportunities of our time. And we’ll do it all through a biblical lens, considering how Christ wants us to lead while being “Rooted” in Christ and linked to one another.

This Leadership Lab — Intensive will be broken into two sections:

1. Leadership Lab — General Session Talks, 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
2. Leadership Lab — Workshops, 1:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Leadership Lab – General Session Talks

The morning session will feature 15-minute, main stage big impact idea presentations by nine frontline Christian leaders that could change the way you think about your leadership and your organization today.
