The two-day symposium, designed for new and experienced pastors and lay leaders who want to begin a western-heritage ministry, will include team training workshops on pastor, elder and children’s ministries, plus western-style discipleship. Other sessions will focus on Christian leadership skills, communications and conflict resolution.
Presenters at the conference will include BGCT Executive Director Charles Wade; Paul Powell, dean of Baylor University’s Truett Seminary; and Joel Gregory, Truett preaching professor.
Following the Saturday sessions, participants will gather for a barbecue dinner, a concert by the Rawhide Fellowship Cowboy Band and an appearance by western movie stuntman Rudy Robbins. For more details or reservations, call (888) 611-2651.
