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 throughout.
The second sessions’ first speaker was Malala Yousafzai, Founder of the Malala Foundation. She is 17 years old and the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner ever. Malala is an amazing leader!!!
