Pastors can often feel misunderstood when faced with increasing skepticism from both the culture and their congregation. How can we continue to faithfully preach God’s Word in this time of moral, spiritual, and political darkness? This seminar will equip you with practical tools to help you lead your congregation through the challenges that lie ahead. Come find encouragement and renewal in your calling to share the truth of Scripture.
