2021 Executive Leadership Summit Recordings

 

“The Gathering: The Meeting as the Heart of a Complex Apostolic Network” by Jeff Reed

Jeff presented an executive summary of The Gathering, then he and Michael Vos discussed the significance of these ideas and positioned this paper as a tool in the way of Christ and His Apostles. This included a response from global leaders and featured Gabriel Searles' song “The Gathering.” The new encyclical booklet is now available. 

 

“The Global Apostolic Movement and the Progress of the Gospel” by Joseph Mattera

Introduced by Jeff Reed and Michael Vos, Joseph presented the artifact of his doctoral studies with BILD. Joseph’s intent is to make a tool “to give practical steps involved in the building of an influential national apostolic network as well as examining present-day theological challenges, paradigms, and the progress of the gospel.” 

 

Keynote﹘Emerging Paradigm: Shaping the Next Christendom Jeff Reed

Jeff presented this challenge, and he and Michael Vos discussed the power of these ideas. We have learned a lot from our intense global executive education zooms over the past year. Can we shape the next Christendom? If we are faithful in understanding and leading key global leaders in applying the way of Christ and His Apostles, we can expect the Spirit to transform us and our global network!

 

Intergenerational Apostolic Leadership 

Jeff Reed and Michael Vos discussed and shared what they’ve been learning in working with existing leaders and NextGen leaders, including the difference between positional authority and biblical authority. This included responses and discussion with our CityChurch elders and many from our apostolic team. 

 

Keynote﹘Global Network Family Address: Building a Network as seen in Acts Michael Vos

Michael presented his address on the state of our global network, and he and Jeff discussed the significance of developments this past year and our goals for the future.
