In Season 5 of ‘Cultivating Second Chair Leaders,’ we will celebrate the strengths of Christ-like servant leaders in the 2nd chair as we reflect on how baptismal identity, relationships, and learning in community have positively impacted God’s call for us to help expand His kingdom.

As KINDLE celebrates 25 years, we also look back at the events and experiences that have cultivated, encouraged and spurred us, as an organization to take leaps of faith and steps forward to serve a wider audience of Christ-like servant leaders.
When we take the time to celebrate, we give glory to God for all his goodness and faithfulness and can keep are eyes on Him as we move forward into the next chapter of fostering and multiplying Christ-like servant leaders.

This is your time to connect in community, find direction, and find freedom to focus on your identity as a Christ-like servant leader in the second chair. Welcome to “Cultivating Second Chair Leaders” Season 5.

Season 5 launches on Tuesday, April 22! We look forward to connecting with you then!
