The Leading Edge: A National Conference for Congregational Leaders Committed to a Multicultural/Multiracial Future April 24-27, 2010

Building on the success of three annual national conferences for leadership in multicultural congregations at the Middle Church, the Middle Project will assume responsibility for these three-day conferences for clergy, seminarians, and other congregational leaders. The conferences educate and equip leaders with practical tools for growing and sustaining prophetic, inclusive and just communities in which congregants rehearse a vision for a just society and the common good.

The conference curriculum focuses on deepening participants understanding of systems and on developing their abilities to teach competencies to congregational leaders; create a vision for a just society; lead change; manage conflict, difference, and resistance; embrace and navigate cultural diversity; access current literature and resources; and impact the discourse in the public square.
