The following were the General Sessions:
  • “Going Beyond the Wall” This session introduces the thematic reason behind this year’s GYM Conference. Success of your ministry is tied to both your ability to identify and your willingness to go beyond the church walls into areas of what some might consider as cutting-edge. It means taking “Ministry Beyond the Walls!” 
  • 2015 AGB Session Beyond the Walls 2015 AGB Session

 

  • “Developing Your Leadership Team: Who’s Got My Back?” Church growth and true ‘effectiveness’ as a pastor has a direct bearing on who is on your team assisting you in pursuit of your ministry goals. What criteria should be considered when you select those who are part of your team? You will learn what does it mean to be an assistant and what must be considered in selecting leadership.

  • “God Has No Glass Ceilings” The phrase ‘glass ceiling’ is often a term given that suggests because of your gender, age, or race you cannot achieve beyond a certain level in life. And unfortunately even in the church, there are those who set boundaries in your life to insinuate you cannot become or fulfill. This session will let you know that in God you can ‘break through’ every limitation that man tries to set as your purpose [even in the church] to fulfill your divine purpose.

 

  • “Dreams Do Come True” Have you ever seen yourself doing something you didn’t believe could ever come true? Have you ever received a dream where you envisioned yourself in a ministry that did not fit the ‘cookie-cutter’ role that many in the church defined for you? This session will challenge your faith to understand that God often has a purpose in our lives that go beyond the traditional positions of the church.

 

  • “Church Leadership for a New Direction” In this session it will be shared how principles on church leadership must be re-examined from traditional views of the past to embrace a new direction for ministry to the Generation X, Millennials & Generation Z. Using the successful pedagogy of Jesus Christ who empowered a leadership team to impact a dispensational change, you’ll discover principles that will equip you to effectively reach new realms of ministry.
  • Bishop Cooper Who Says You Can’t Do that in Ministry

 

  • Taking Worship to a New Realm” It is important to understand that worship is ‘dynamic’ which means it is always active or changing. Our worship must be taken to a new realm or dimension that cannot be defined in the traditional role we consider in the church. You will learn how your worship must go beyond the traditional walls of the church for a global impact of a new generation!
