Spend your lunch time learning and sharing (and eating) as you listen to our guest presenter. TheChew on This series will alternate months with our VBWIM online Coffee Break.
This summer, invest an hour in your leadership on Wednesday, July 22, from 12–1 pm. Join us via Zoom for Chew on This as we learn together and encourage one another in ministry. Our guest speaker is Rev. Dr. Josh Hayden, Senior Pastor of First Baptist Church Ashland and author of Remissioning Church: A Field Guide for Bringing a Church Back to Life.
Our topic is Making and Holding Space at Leadership Tables: Empowering Organizations and People to Work Together. Josh served on the BGAV Task Force on Support for Women in Ministry and brings experience in collaborative leadership, organizational change, and creating space for voices at leadership tables.
Feel free to invite anyone you think would benefit from the conversation to join us.
