CrossRoad Church UMC is excited to again be a host site for this dynamic conference broadcast live from Willow Creek Community Church. Every year this conference has an incredible impact on the life of our church. This is our seventh year as a host site for the event, and we’re expecting it to be the best one yet!

WHAT IS THE LEADERSHIP SUMMIT?
Real-life leaders don’t wait for the perfect time or the right situation to use their gifts. Instead, they see opportunities to reach out, serve others, and push the Kingdom forward. In the same way, the best leaders don’t wait for quantum leap moments to improve their leadership skills. They’re always looking for ways to stretch their minds, broaden their horizons, and expand their hearts, knowing the most dependable process comes through a steady pursuit of ongoing input.

The Leadership Summit is an excellent, reliable way for you and your team to experience high-caliber leadership development—year after year. This year's top-flight faculty includes:

• Bill Hybels, senior pastor, Willow Creek Community Church
• Brad Anderson, vice-chairman and CEO, Best Buy, Inc.
• Wendy Kopp, CEO and founder, Teach for America
• Catherine Rohr, CEO and founder, Prison Entrepreneurship
  Program
• Efrem Smith, senior pastor, The Sanctuary Covenant Church
• John Burke, lead pastor, Gateway Community Church
• Craig Groeschel, senior pastor, Lifechurch.tv
• Chuck Colson, founder, Prison Fellowship Ministries
• Gary Haugen, president and founder, International Justice
  Mission
• Bill George, Harvard professor and former CEO, Medtronics

Designed especially for those who use their gifts in and through the local church, you’ll join hearts and minds with tens of thousands of Christ-following leaders around the world. The Leadership Summit is both convenient and affordable. Join us at CrossRoad Church UMC, N.E. Florida’s exclusive Summit Site, and lead where you are.
