About this Event
Michael Harvey - Keynote Speaker and Workshop Leader
'We like to think of our churches as welcoming. Michael Harvey, an expert on church growth, asks, "How welcoming can we be if we don't take our welcome outside with the gift of an invitation?" God sent his son to invite us all into a relationship, and so to be like God is to be a person who invites.
