Introducing Exponential NEXT. Read more here.
At Leadership Network we are positioning ourselves to help the church dream and execute innovative practices that increase church multiplication and healthy growth.
When healthy churches grow, multiplying disciples are made and missionaries are deployed. We believe that Church Next is a healthy resource designed to inspire the church to innovate for the sake of the Kingdom of God.
The change won’t stop. It will only accelerate. And through it all, faithful leaders will keep asking: What does Jesus want? How can we follow him today? And what will make the biggest impact in the future?
Join Dave Rhodes, Leadership Network Church NEXT Director and Clarity House, Co-Founder with Shane Stacey, Clarity House, Co-Founder for episode 1 of the Church NEXT series: Embracing Your Kingdom Platform.
In this video Dave and Shane set the Biblical framework for the entire series by looking at a pivotal moment in the life and ministry of Jesus. When the Pharisees try to detour Jesus’ ministry future, Jesus makes a move to ensure his ministry future. This pivotal move models a shift that we all must make as ministry leaders if we want to empower the latent leadership potential of our church.

Albert Einsten was once asked, “if you had an hour to solve a problem, how would you spend it?” Einstein replied, “I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about (and naming) the problem and 5 minutes thinking about the solution.” In this video Dave and Shane help leaders name the problem in their context that the rest of the video series is built to solve.

Most leaders make the mistake of leading with vehicle rather than vision. It’s like someone asking you where you are going on vacation and you answering Toyota. It makes no sense. Toyota may be how you get there but it doesn’t inspire anyone to take the journey with you. That’s the way most people feel when we ask them to join our Small Group, Bible Study or Missional Community. It should be no surprise then when we find that people don’t want to or don’t have time to join our Small Group. They already have a BMW parked outside. What people really need is a vision vivid enough to get into our vehicle to journey toward. In this video, Dave and Shane help “would be” leaders create a vivid vision that they can cast based on the value that they demonstrate in the lives of people they hope to influence and impact.
