    The Sermon Snapshot: Actionable Feedback for Every Communicator on Your Team (Ryan Morrison, Fall 2025)

    Your Church has probably never heard you at your best. Not because you don’t work hard, but because you don’t have a reliable system for feedback. How do you know if your teaching is both biblically accurate and deeply relevant? What blind spots might be quietly eroding your credibility? If you could grow in just one skill that would make an immediate difference in your preaching, would you know where to start?  Join us for a practical conversation on how busy leaders can get the honest, actionable feedback they need to take their teaching to the next level. Sample Feedback Survey Notes & Visuals

In this workshop, we delve into the heart of leading those you love with a resilience mindset, exploring how leaders can view trials not as impediments, but as opportunities for growth and transformation.
