The gospel's advancement demands our full commitment. Paul sacrificed all for it, and in the early church, women adopted cultural practices to serve this purpose. Today, we need every gift—male and female—to reach people for Christ and lead effectively. We're up against it, and the gospel must be advanced.

Promoting and empowering women in ministry breaks free from limitations. Jesus offered this freedom from the start, showing Mary that learning was key. When women became the first evangelists announcing the risen Lord, they faced disbelief, yet stood firm. Churches that celebrate women's unique contributions unlock a freedom we're missing.

Moving your family is a huge decision. We prioritized bringing Belinda to meet the team face-to-face, ensuring perfect alignment and giving her confidence in her new chapter. It was a key time for everyone involved.

The foundation of a strong ministry lies in the relationship between lead and campus pastors. Open communication and robust connection are key to navigating challenges, as demonstrated by a six-month period of weekly online chats to build rapport before a new pastor arrived.

High Wycombe church sadly didn't survive COVID. Following pre-COVID conflict and the pandemic's impact, they struggled to revive. Our denomination asked Riverton to help replant. This is that story.

If you're a lead pastor thinking about adopting or reviving a struggling church, the absolute first thing to get right is your staff. Carefully select individuals who align culturally and theologically with your ministry philosophy and who fit your existing team.
