In an effort to add value to pastors and church leaders, INJOY Stewardship Solutions has dispatched me to attend the That Church Conference.  Today, I will be bringing the top leadership lessons from some of the greatest social media minds in Christianity.

The next session was conducted by Social Media Director of North Point Ministries Dave Adamson.

The following are 33 Leadership Quotes from Dave Adamson from the That Church Conference:
