The Jack W. Hayford - School of Pastoral Nurture

A Leadership Advancement Program

Focused on increasing ministry effectiveness of pastors and leaders and facilitating personal growth and renewal.

Join a small group of pastors (limited to 35-45) and spend an intensive time with Pastor Jack Hayford in disciplined reflection and interaction. In this small setting you will:

• Be with, talk to, question, and "feel the pulse of" Pastor Hayford, as he opens his heart to you as one of this small group;
• Discuss key themes, concepts, and values that build a mindset and lifestyle for a true servant-and-shepherd-hearted ministry;
• Receive practical input as Pastor Jack opens the Word, offers biblical and expositional insights, and guidelines for shaping a congregation's life.
• Receive exposition and sermonic resources;
• Profit from a lifetime of lessons learned as a leader, as Pastor Hayford relates personal stories of how the Holy Spirit processed life-long shaping for truly fruitful, faithful, enduring ministry.

Consultations will take place in these contexts:

• Collegial - Pastor Hayford will set forth key concepts which govern his mindset for ministry. These sessions are highly interactive, providing opportunity for pastors not only to hear Dr. Hayford's thinking on the themes indicated, but to inquire, "pick his brain," and give both observations and contributions.
• Classroom - Pastor Hayford will focus on a specific Bible book in each Consultation, providing for thematic and
• expository examination of those timeless principles that establish roots, nourish growth and secure lasting foundations while developing a stable body-life in a local church. In depth attention is given to pivotal themes. Question-answer times seek to offer and explore real solutions to real challenges leaders face today.
• Intimate - During each Consultation, Pastor and Mrs. Hayford will host an evening at their home one evening, providing a "breakaway" for those present at each Consultation. These evenings usually include a barbecue at the parsonage, followed by a time of praise and warm fellowship, with a mini-concert by a noted Christian artist.

Continuing Education credit is awarded and either graduate or baccalaureate credit is available.
