Today is the final day of my favorite conference of the year! INJOY Stewardship Solutions has dispatched to attend the Orange and ReThink Leadership Conference in Atlanta, GA. This event contains the most relevant church leadership content I annually receive. It’s just an amazing conference!!
The afternoon’s first session was a roundtable discussion between Reggie Joiner, Lee Jenkins and others on the subject of racial reconciliation. This time together was moving and incredibly impactful.
