Monthly Leader Lunches: Plant Fort Worth (Fall 2024)

  • Hosted at Various Fort Worth Churches (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Come consider your church’s role in multiplying the gospel… together!

Jesus’ commission to the church was to make disciples, to baptize them, and to teach them to observe all that he commanded. Jesus’ mission for us was, essentially, to plant the Gospel in the city and to plant churches of Gospel-formed people. Every month, multiple leaders from multiple churches across the Fort Worth area — representing multiple veins of theology and practice — come together to consider how we can partner together to see our area saturated with the gospel. We’d love for you to join us!

Soma Family 2025 Retreat

to Feb 17

Soma Family 2025 Retreat

Leadership in the New Testament was based on teams of coworkers rather than exalted individuals. These teams were made up of men and women and they valued various giftings.

Leadership in the New Testament was based on service rather than lording over others. The New Testament shied away from title and privilege, and focused instead on role and mutual honoring.

Soma believes that leadership should be team-based, include men and women, value various giftings, and look to serve the church rather than gaining status or privilege.

Therefore, we are inviting leadership teams in existing Soma churches, church plants, and adoption cohorts to be strengthened and equipped in community at the 2025 Soma Retreat. Our hope is to bring content that will benefit local church staff, MC leaders, deacons, worship teams, and financial personnel.

Exponential Global Conference

“Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.” – John 14:12

Jesus Wants Us To Experience The “Greater Things”

Experience the “greater things” Jesus has in store for us – a life beyond good, aiming for greatness. Following Jesus’ mission leads to a flourishing life, not just settling for the ordinary. Let’s move beyond mere growth to creating a multiplying movement, building God’s Kingdom together. Jesus calls us to embrace the extraordinary and resist the temptation of building our own empires, focusing solely on advancing His Kingdom.

October Workshop (FREE online)

  • Two times for eastern & western participants (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

What if every church followed God’s leading in sending, and were willing to pray and give away our finances, and even our best leaders?
What if we could do so, not in our church’s 20th or 200th year of existence, but in its second year?
And what if we could at least start down that path, not when we have 200 or 2000 people engaged, but when we have 20 people?

Your church has a role to play in
equipping and sending for God’s mission...
let's discover what it is, together!

Jesus’ View of Leadership (with JR Woodward; free, online)

Jesus’ View of Leadership (with JR Woodward; free, online)

What if we've missed the point of "church leadership"?

Why are so many Christian celebrities who "rose," now "falling"?

Could it be that words like "celebrity" & "high profile" are never intended to refer to those leading God's people in the first place?

Author & missiologist Dr. JR Woodward thinks that for all the talk about Christian leadership right now, we might be missing the root cause of the current crisis in Christian leadership. The Equipping Group is honored to host him for a free, online workshop as JR shares themes from his new and award-winning book, The Scandal of Leadership.
