Have you ever wished you knew how to handle all that life throws at you before it actually threw it all at you? If so, this is the session for you as you will learn from the life experiences of several couples who have experienced the ups and downs of marriage, parenting and ministry.

It takes a team to launch a life-giving church. Discover what that process should look like in this session in which you will learn the “do’s and dont’s” from highly successful ARC church planters.

It is often said that “Without a vision, the people will perish”, however without the right organizational design/structure the organization will fail to achieve that vision, let alone do it with excellence. In this session we will examine the role of organizational structure, creating role clarity, navigating complexity, conflict resolution, leader-member exchange (LMX), and EQ as precursors for leading and developing high performance teams.

Once upon a time… marriage was forever. It was a covenant that knit one man and one woman together. This weaving made both stronger, nobler, and more vibrant expressions of who they were created to be. They were better together than either had been on their own. The wedding ceremony was but a beginning. It was the gateway to build their happily ever after. Each choice and action was designed to construct the life their union represented. Husband and wife walked into the great unknown with hearts, hands, and voices intertwined to express the love of their Creator. How did we lose touch with this profound love story? In The Story of Marriage, John and Lisa Bevere invite you to rediscover God’s original plan. Whether you’re married, single, or engaged, your story is a part of His.

When Substance church first broke 2000 members, it only had around 80 givers. So, how does a ministry thrive amidst a resource void environment? Get ready to learn several leadership principles that will enable your ministry to scale while your resources are still catching up.

Service production is not just about great sound, lights, cameras and cool stage designs. In the session, we will talk through how you prepare days and sometimes weeks in advance on the production side of the service in order to help create excellent environments and experiences. We will also talk about the latest in equipment and technology that help aid those environments along with some tips on how to build the team you need to make it all happen.

Every church planter and pastor dreams big dreams! Every pastor also knows what it is like to get stuck. Then you can be at the end of one dream while staring up the mountain at another dream knowing that you have never been their before. When vision is fuzzy we can default to a plug and play ministry model or even worse we adopt the generic vision of another church. God wires each pastor and church to fulfill His purpose in unique and powerful ways. This APP Session will help you gain new tools you can take back to your leadership to develop a visionary path that will never cease inspiring and directing.

ARC’s mission is launch, connect and equip life-giving churches all around the world. This session will provide you with the answers on why you should launch your church through ARC.
