What is leadership institute (formerly "FEATS")
anyway?
Leadership Institute is a non-degreed program for leadership
development offered by the Friends Center of Evangelical Friends
Church Southwest. It is designed to work within the context
of a local church, a group of churches or regionally. The goal
of Leadership Institute is to equip a wide variety of leaders
for ministry to fuel a world-wide church multiplication movement,
expanding the Kingdom of God in the power of the Holy Spirit.
We believe God has called us to plant 40 new churches in the
next five years. To do that, we must increase our resources
for leadership development. A wide variety of leaders will be
needed to serve in all aspects of ministry. If participants
are faithful to the Leadership Institute process, they will
come out of it prepared to minister and lead in whatever capacity
best aligns with their gifts. Leadership Institute will help
people:
- integrate 15 EFC leadership values into their lives and
ministries encompassing character development, ministry skills
and lifelong learning
- understand their call
- discover where and how they fit into our church multiplication
movement
