What is the "Core Leadership Team"?
The Core, as it is affectionately known, is the leadership team at Good News Community Church. It is made up of the individuals who lead and manage the various ministries throughout the church. The Core are the ones who define the future of this church -the decisions they make and the actions they take impact the entire Good News Church community, the city of Broomfield, the surrounding communities, the world, and ultimately the Kingdom of God.
This site has two purposes:
Primarily, this site is a tool to keep the Core Leadership Team informed about the monthly Core trainings -the where, the when, and the what.
Secondarily, this site has been left public so that everyone who is a part of Good News Community Church (especially the up-and-coming and emerging leaders) can get a peek into what is happening at the leadership level of the church.
Regardless of who you are or how you found this site, please feel free to look around, subscribe to a few e-newsletters, and order one of the recommended books. ...and who knows, maybe you are one of tomorrows leaders.
