Sustainable from the Start
How to build resiliency for your soul, your team and your finances
One of the greatest challenges to starting a new ministry is envisioning and taking steps towards sustainability. However, it is possible to plan for sustainability from the start. This is certainly about financial planning, but it is also about building resilient teams and systems and about developing healthy spiritual rhythms or practices in your life as a ministry leader.
This one-day online conference will open up conversations about strengthening your resiliency in all of these areas. You will uncover practical ways to work toward sustainability through the long haul of starting something new.
