Welcome to the first episode of Let's Talk: Life, Leadership & Making Disciples.

Every week, we strive to provide valuable insights to train, inform and inspire healthy leaders who will go on build healthy churches. 

This is the first in a three episode series featuring Ryan Lutz about Growing Leaders Where You Are. Ryan is the senior pastor of Bethany Missionary Church in Elkhart, Indiana. He also oversees our full-time and part-time residency program here at the North Central Region of the Missionary Church. As the director of our leadership development program, Ryan is passionate about empowering leaders in churches of every size. 

"You don't need a larger church, a bigger budget, or a perfect system to develop leaders. You simply need to believe God has already placed potential leaders around you and take intentional steps to invest in them. Many pastors are praying for leaders while sitting in a room full of future leaders." - Ryan
