Strategic Preparedness Training for Pastors, Elders, Church Leaders, and Security Teams
The calling to shepherd God's people carries tremendous responsibility.
Every week, church leaders make decisions that impact the safety, well-being, and spiritual care of those entrusted to them. While our mission is to proclaim the Gospel, we cannot ignore the realities facing churches in today's world.
Krisis 101 was created to help church leaders think clearly about difficult threats before they become crises.
Through six weeks of expert-led instruction, practical discussion, and peer learning, participants will gain insight into some of the most significant safety and security challenges facing churches across North America today.
A Message from Dr. Dan Fitzsimons
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
As an Elder, the weight of many lives rests on your heart and mind. Krisis exists to help lighten that load through strategic awareness of the most difficult safety challenges facing our churches today.
Our instructors have carefully analyzed current and past threats for their relevance and timeliness in North America. The subjects selected for Krisis 101 were chosen because each has the potential to disrupt, damage, or even terminate a ministry's work and witness.
By opening these conversations across Presbyteries and church networks, we can strengthen mutual support, reduce uncertainty, and better prepare for the questions that keep leaders awake at night.
The goal is not fear. The goal is faithful stewardship.
Join Krisis as we lay the groundwork for larger conversations focused on keeping peace in God's House."
