Failure, burnout, and withdrawal have become the norm for Christian leaders, but it’s not meant to be this way. Join our conversation with Robynn Bliss, spiritual director & author, and Aaron White, author & National Director of 24/7 Prayer.

Join pastors Rici Skei & Paul Eddy as we explore the radical implications of living our lives and forming our theology with Jesus at the centre. Rici & Paul unpack assumptions of secular and religious cultures and work through five aspects of Jesus-centred living that just might get Jesus and his followers killed today.

What's the "Third Way" all about? Join our conversation with Mark Baker, PhD, as he walks us through attitudes, theology, and discipleship practices that self-described Third Way churches are living out. Together, we learn practical strategies for forming disciples and navigating polarization around the most divisive issues of our day.

Political polarization in U.S. church communities has never been greater, and the whole world is watching with uncertainty at what will unfold in the wake of the November 2020 election.

We discuss practical ways to talk about politics and explore strategies and experiential ways to keep Jesus at the centre of discipleship and mission.

Slowing down to listen, learn, and engage together is a critical step on the road to justice and racial reconciliation. We want to unite around Jesus and seek what it means to walk humbly, act justly, advocate for change, and love well as his followers.

Pastors Shawna Boren (St. Paul, MN) and Hank Johnson (Harrisburg, PA) provide perspective from American communities deeply impacted by the recent chain of events, and Denley McIntosh (Oakville, ON) adds insights from a Canadian context.

At our recent UNITE | ONLINE event, we created space to imagine what the landscape might be like after the Pandemic, what the church will be known for, and how we can be evolving, preparing, and innovating as we follow Jesus into the significant opportunities that lie ahead. Listen in as Jon Hand hosts this timely and engaging conversation with pastors Mandy Smith and Jeremy Duncan.

We were able to engage with pastors from churches in some of the hardest hit areas, and heard from others who are working to mobilize their churches to do what love requires of us in this time. We have an amazing opportunity to redeem the impact and relevancy of the church in our post-Christian culture, and we'll do that best in unity and collaboration with one another!
