On January the 21st the Discipling God’s People network held a day conference at Hope Church Merthyr, called “Jesus’ work, Jesus’ way”. Around 40 or so of us gathered from multiple churches and denominations across South Wales, and were challenged and encouraged by the teaching of Mark Stirling around the theme of what leadership in the body of Christ is for and what should it look like, starting from the core idea, “You can’t do Jesus’ work in non-Jesus ways”.
It was a great day for building relationships across different expressions of the church, but it was a very significant time in terms of wrestling with some very difficult and current issues.
Each session had lots of space and time for interaction and questions, all of which served to put the teaching into gritty real life contexts, and leading to very practical applications. The sessions are available to watch at the links below, with a summary of the content of each session. We would encourage you to listen to them in order, as each one builds on the previous session.
