This year, as I am traveling to different geographies I will be meeting with small groups of local church leaders in order to be together for fellowship, discussion, and prayer. On February 28th we will be coming together for a lunch meeting in St. Louis, Missouri where I will also be giving a a message on shepherding. This meeting will be sponsored by Reformation Christian AssemblyCome join the NCFIC and other church leaders in your area for a gathering of fellowship, encouragement, prayer and instruction. Please feel free to bring your sons or other men you might be discipling for leadership.
