From Protection to Provision

How strong is your commitment to Christian education? Are you willing to be poured out so that your school can flourish? Join Glendon Horst as he challenges his audience to not only protect but also build on the foundation of your school and add value to the Kingdom. In this talk you will be offered practical insight into how to equip and prepare your students to become kingdom builders through teaching beliefs, modeling values, and building habits. As a school leader you have the potential to influence future generations; lean into the responsibility, do the difficult things, protect the foundation, and lead into the future!
