What did Paul mean when he said ‘you have many teachers but not many fathers’? How can we fulfil the Paul/Timothy model of entrusting leadership without feeling threatened? How do we manage transition and succession well? How do we ‘father’ the next generation of leaders without abdicating responsibility? 

Phil Emerson will be hosting this seminar and trying to teach us how we answer these questions in the context of a local church.

Phil is one of the Lead Pastors and founder of Emmanuel Church.  Phil is passionate about the local church and releasing the next generation. He finds himself these days pastoring other pastors and one of his primary desires is to see ‘the hearts of the Fathers turned to the sons and the sons to the Fathers.’
