Influence. Regardless of our industry, our hierarchical position in an organization, or our family role, we all have influence. But, do we consider it a resource to steward?
Stewarding Influence, featuring Andy Crouch
Date/Time: Thursday, October 4, 5:30-8:00 p.m (Program begins at 6:15 p.m.)

According to esteemed author and former editor and producer at Christianity Today, Andy Crouch, "Two common temptations lure us away from abundant living—withdrawing into safety or grasping for power."
Do you grasp for power? Do you withdraw? Can you leverage your influence for the good of all?
"True flourishing travels down an unexpected path: being both strong and weak."
Come explore your influence and understand how you can be both Strong and Weak. Andy Crouch will provide the tools to help you marry both your authority and your vulnerability in ways that will create opportunities for those around you to flourish.
Reserve your spot and invite a friend to join you today.
