From local civic organizations to business engagement, effective pastors connect with the marketplace for their good, the good of their churches, and for the health of their communities.


Hear from LeBrent Speed, Managing Director - MN and Northern WI at BNI Global and founder of Transform Men, about why connecting is crucial for pastors to lead their churches towards flourishing in their communities, and how pastors can take practical steps to increase their engagement.
