This week we are going back to the foundation of everything we do at Lifeway Leadership, and that is Leadership Pipeline, a concept and framework for churches to develop leaders at every level of ministry. Over the course of the week, we will be re-releasing a podcast each day from our previously recorded Pipeline Week. You can also go and download the free e-booklet called Developing Your Leadership Pipeline which can be downloaded here (https://www.leadership.lifeway.com/free-e-booklet). In this episode Todd Adkins, Eric Geiger, and Barnabas Piper introduce and explain the systems of a leadership pipeline and ask the following questions.

* What is the content in a Leadership Pipeline?

* Why is it so important?

* Where should organizations start when auditing their training content?

* Can content really be aligned across complex organizations?

* What is competency based learning?

* What are practical ways to begin developing content? What are the options for different areas of the church?
