What a great first week it’s been on the Top 3 Growth Barriers Tour for Senior Pastors!

Today is stop #4 and I’m in Metro Atlanta (Marietta), getting ready to train over 200 pastors in the top 3 growth barriers that every church faces, regardless of size.

Our host today is Pastor Bryant Wright and  Johnson Ferry Baptist Church, they were gracious enough to partner with me to invest in some of our fellow pastors.

Bryant is one of the most effective and unique communicators I know – check out his “Right from the Heart” ministry here.

A lot has changed around Metro Atlanta since Johnson Ferry Baptist Church began in the early 1980’s, but one thing has remained constant: their solid commitment to Christ and expanding His Kingdom.

It’s going to be a great day in the Peach State!

P.S. I’ll be wrapping up the Top 3 Growth Barriers Tour for Senior Pastors with events in the Metro Washington, D.C. Area and New York City – if you’re a Senior Pastor in these areas, I hope you’ll join me! Click here for more info.
