FIRST THURSDAY WEBINARS
August webinar:
a resident’s Story

Leadership journeys rarely follow a straight line.
Sometimes the best step forward begins with taking a step back.
Join us on August 6 for a conversation with Jordan Dunbar, Student Pastor and Pastoral Resident at Smoky Hill Vineyard Church in Aurora, Colorado. Jordan will share his story of entering a pastoral residency, the lessons he's learned along the way, and how God often uses unexpected seasons to prepare leaders for what's next. Whether you're considering a residency yourself or investing in the next generation of leaders, you'll leave encouraged by an honest conversation about calling, growth, and the value of intentional development.
