Find out who we are, what we do and why we do it About Living Leadership We want to see a world in which Christian leaders and their spouses are thriving in their faith; joyfully worshiping Christ and faithfully serving Him. We firmly believe that churches and Christian organisations that are led well by joyful, faithful leaders can have a great impact on the many people they lead and the communities they serve, and that by supporting leaders we can also help them avoid many harmful practices that would have a detrimental impact on the congregations and communities they serve. We aim to do this by providing a range of training (Formation), support (Refresh) and resources through a network of experienced Christians of proven character around the UK who are captivated by the grace of God and committed to the glory of Christ and the spiritual health of those who lead his church.
