Throughout this semester, every single aspect of my life changed. I changed friendships that were not healthy, my boundaries improved, my focus and vision became clearer. I began making better decisions, and stepped out of my comfort zone. My level of leadership today is not the same as when I began Leader Advance.

Participants are adult mature believers in Jesus who intentionally take steps in discipleship. Those steps look like a sure faith in Christ, water baptism, completion of Next Steps, generosity, small group & Serve Team involvement, and completion of Freedom Ministry.
Advance members will complete the semester maturing as Gospel-Centered leaders and identifying or leaning more intentionally into their best "all in" for Gospel-centered ministry. We want to help you walk confidently into the calling God has for you in this season of life!
