The Challenge
How do you help dozens of local churches govern well when each has its own leadership structure, challenges, and level of experience?
For Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec (CBOQ), equipping local church leaders is an important part of serving its congregations. But providing accessible, practical governance training across a denomination requires more than occasional workshops or written resources.
The Solution
Building on an existing leadership coaching relationship, CBOQ invited Shepherd Consulting to develop a ten-episode video series addressing the real governance questions church boards face. Currently in development, the series introduces a flexible, multi-modal approach that recognizes how effective governance must adapt to different circumstances. The videos will also be available through Shepherd’s website.
As Cathy Millar, Associate Director of Communications and Events, reflected:
“We’re so grateful for Shepherd’s partnership and look forward to the work we are doing together and to all the great things God has in store for our churches through it. It’s a blessing to know we’re prayed for and seen.”
