There is a growing movement within local churches... Learning to live and lead like Jesus.  

WHAT IS IT?

L3 is a movement within local churches designed to develop Leaders who Live and Lead like Jesus.  Churches can expect to identify, recruit, and develop both present and future leaders toward Christian leadership maturity. 

THE MISSION

         To emerge, equip, and enrich Christian leaders who will
         stay the course for a lifetime of service to God's Kingdom.

THE VISION

         
To facilitate a church-based, lifelong approach to the identification and development of Christian leaders who
         will give innovative and servant-hearted leadership to the people o God.

THE PROCESS...

         Emerging Leaders (Year One) addresses significant issues related to the character formation of an emerging
         leader.  The process involves daily study, weekly small-group discussion, three seminars, an overnight retreat,
         and two-day High Adventure camp. 

         Equipping Leaders (Year Two) is for those who discovered or confirmed during Year One that they are called
         to Christian leadership.  Participants will identify their God-given strengths and develop their direction and
         strategy for others to follow, learning to lead through a team approach.  

         Enriching Leaders (Year Three) prepares participants for the personal and spiritual challenges that must be
         overcome by leaders who desire to finish well over a lifetime of effective ministry.  This year focuses on the
         paradigm shift from being effective leaders to becoming effective developers of leaders. 
          
LOCAL CHURCH-BASED...

         Each church involved assembles at least one group of up to eight participants plus a facilitator who serves as
         the group leader.  This training is church friendly, practical and life transformative.
