About the Leadership Learning Series We are likely at all different points in our leadership development journey. Some of you may be right at the beginning – starting to lead a small group or managing your first big project. Others are much farther along – shepherding a large staff team or providing strategic leadership for a sizable ministry. But none of us are at the finish line. Leaders are continually growing, adapting, and learning. The Leadership Learning Series includes virtual workshops, book clubs, and webinars designed to develop and enhance leadership and management skills. You'll have a chance to learn from leaders in the church, ministry, and the marketplace, as well as connect with other staff, leaders, and supervisors within Reliant. One of the goals for the series is to provide opportunities for you to learn from speakers with diverse backgrounds and experiences. The speakers selected will all be Christians dedicated to the Gospel. As a broadly evangelical mission agency, Reliant's intention is not to endorse or promote any doctrinal position over another but rather to foster a space for conversation, learning, and development. |

Leadership Rhythms of Christ with Eddy Moratin
Ministry is busy. It might feel like you are pulled in a million different directions every day. This is not a new phenomenon. Even Jesus experienced a constant flow of demands and pressures during His earthly ministry, yet the Savior of the world recognized the value of slowing down and focusing on the present moment. And He had, unquestionably, the most effective ministry ever.
While now may be one of the busiest seasons of ministry for you, take advantage of this opportunity to learn from an experienced nonprofit and ministry leader. Eddy Moratin shares seven internal self-care habits of Jesus that empowered His outward discipline: Love, Direction, Reflection, Retreat, Listening, Questioning, and Story. With today's challenges, reminding ourselves of these timeless and essential practices that Jesus modeled during His ministry will impact how we lead and care for those around us.

Power Dynamics in Ministry with Dr. Rob Dixon
The reality of our world is that some people have more power than others. That's true even in churches and ministries. As Christians, how do we think conceptually about power? How should we steward the power we have? And is it possible to redistribute power in our teams and ministries? These questions and others were addressed by Rob Dixon. In this webinar, we examine the concept of social power and consider how power works, both for individuals as well as in our ministry communities. You'll be helped to understand how your personal power interacts with the community you are a part of, and you'll emerge with ideas for how to use the power you have to advance your church or ministry's mission in greater measure.
Ahead of viewing the webinar, please make time to reflect on the following questions:
- When you consider the idea of power, what feelings come to mind? Why those feelings?
- How would you define the idea of power in a setting like your church/ministry?
- How do you see power at work in the context of your ministry?
- What questions do you have about power as you think about your work?
Rob Dixon (DIS, Fuller Theological Seminary) is an associate regional ministry director with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA and senior fellow for gender partnership with the InterVarsity Institute. He is an adjunct professor at Fresno Pacific University and Fuller Theological Seminary and provides training on flourishing mixed-gender ministry partnerships for numerous organizations around the country.
