Focusing Leaders is centered around how God develops the character of a leader (Christ-likeness) which is the basis of Biblical leadership and spiritual authority. Focusing Leaders is offered through CFCI's "Emerging Ministries Institute" (EMI) |

"As goes the leader, so goes the battle..." Christians in leadership come under severe attack. Dave & Sheryl take specialized teams to places like Tijuana where God has give us great favor to minister to leaders and leaders of leaders. |
Throughout the weekend they are challenged to
"find out where God is working and join
Him there."
Since its beginning in 2006 over 200 churches and schools from five states have sent groups. |

Pastors and wives, missionaries, government officials, and the leaders in the marketplace need safe-places to process issues and receive healing.
In Omaha our home has become a safe-place haven to care for leaders in the mid-west who tell us that this is a place where both truth and love overflow into their lives.
