Today I am being dispatched by Injoy Stewardship Solutions (ISS) to attend the Chick-Fil-A Leadercast. In an effort to grow in my skills to better add value to pastors and church leaders, I will be live blogging about Brave Leaders throughout.
The first speaker was Andy Stanley, the great pastor of North Point Community Church in Atlanta, GA. There is no better communicator of leadership than Andy.
