What if your Session’s potential could get unlocked?
It’s absolutely possible, through this program made specifically for PRESBYTERIAN Sessions.
Isn’t it curious that no one ever teaches you how to work on a team, and then you end up on teams your whole adult life?
The situation can get even trickier with Sessions, since you don’t work together on a weekly basis.
To top it off, the direction and future of the church relies on how well you can lead … together.
So, how will a group of leaders who work together once a month somehow “move the ball down the field” on behalf of your church? And just as importantly, how will your Session stay strong and healthy along the way, avoiding dysfunction?
The Flourishing Session program exists because Sessions don’t get strong and healthy by default.
Imagine:
Learning how to stay healthy and united as a Session
Growing in your ability to show up and contribute as an elder
Getting stronger in how you captain action items
Session meetings that are more timely and anticipated
Decisions getting made well and quickly
Healthy conflict leading to more wisdom
It’s a program & a resource in one.
The Flourishing Session is designed to give you a program your Session can walk through — together or separately — as well as a resource you can continue to draw on into the future.
It includes three parts:
Part One: The Five Practices
to empower your fellow elders to work in unified, healthy ways
Part Two: The Force-Multiplier Meeting
to transforms your monthly gatherings into meaningful, effective times
Part Three: How to Become a Captain
to help your elders take ownership of the action items that come out of Session meetings or committees
“All of us elders feel empowered now to participate in meaningful work on the Session.”
“Our meetings are much more timely and focused now!”
“I feel much more prepared in advance of Session meetings, and grateful afterward for what we’re accomplishing that feels so much easier now.”
