Every Christian Leader Thriving

Christ-like Character and Competency Produce Thriving

In October 2019, the Christian Leadership Alliance board discerned God moving, and a new vision statement for the Alliance was born: Every Christian leader thriving.

After fully adopting that vision statement, it became highly relevant in March 2020 when God provided a remarkable way to unite and equip leaders amid a Global pandemic. Through that first Christian digital conference experience, he gave us a front-row seat and a glimpse of what thriving looked like during such an unprecedented time.

A Call to Go Global

Then, the Holy Spirit led us to take the digital event worldwide. After miracle upon miracle, it launched in August. God rallied ten global partners to join us, and together, we witnessed the state of leaders thriving worldwide. That fall event was our first Outcomes Conference Global Digital Experience.

We’ve reached leaders in a church in Bethlehem who cared for Syrian refugees, missionaries dwelling in villages along the DRC, women ministering to women in Mongolia, disciple-makers throughout Africa, and orphanages in Guatemala bringing Jesus to vulnerable and abandoned children. And so many more leaders have been equipped in places where only God could make the way. This journey has been well beyond what we imagined and far from any timeline we could have planned.

Since that first global digital event, the Alliance community has convened and equipped over 10,500 leaders in over 100 countries.

Competency + Christ-Like Character = Thriving

For almost 50 years, the Alliance has focused on preventing the premature failure of Christian nonprofits by closing the competency gaps, but now we know there is more profound work to do. God made clear that the Alliance has another role to play. So now we are entirely focused on strengthening mission-critical competencies and fostering Christ-like character in the lives of leaders worldwide.

Today and Tomorrow’s Leaders

We wholeheartedly believe following God’s plan positions us to equip today’s leaders. It also enables us to impact the lives of younger men and women called to serve in full-time ministry. We are ready to embrace and cultivate Kingdom-centric leaders who will faithfully steward ministry resources as they seek God’s will every step of the way.

GIVE TODAY

Thank you for your place in the Alliance community and your part in his plan.

Blessed is the one
    who does not walk in step with the wicked
or stand in the way that sinners take
    or sit in the company of mockers,
 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,
    and who meditates on his law day and night.
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
    which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
    whatever they do prospers.

~ Psalm 1:1-3, NIV
