Breakout Sessions

Leading from your Idenitity 

True leadership doesn’t start with skills, strategies, or platforms—it begins with identity. In this breakout, Clint Bieri will guide participants into a deeper understanding of leading from who they are in Christ. Drawing from his experience in leadership development and spiritual formation, Clint will explore how holiness and the deeper life fuel authentic ministry, sustainable leadership, and Spirit-dependent impact.

The Grateful Leader

Gratitude changes everything—especially the way we lead. In this session, we’ll dive into how a thankful heart shapes our mindset, our relationships, and our ministry. As youth leaders, it’s easy to get caught up in what’s hard, what’s missing, or what’s next. But when we learn to lead from a posture of gratitude, we reflect Christ’s joy and resilience even in challenging seasons.
