Kieni Women's Leadership Seminar a First



On Saturday, we gathered at Bellevue Baptist church for a women’s leadership conference.  More than 40 women representing 11 churches from the area participated. The women who have been elected to positions of leadership from these churches range in age from young to old. They gathered to learn principles of effective leadership and how to implement them among the women of their churches. Leaders must practice intimacy with God through worship, prayer and Bible study.  Practicing spiritual disciplines strengthens leaders in order that they might help others grow in their walks with the Lord and become agents of transformation in their churches and communities.
We had fun with beans.  Beans are something that these women see every day of their lives. Using  bean seeds as a visual, along with a magnifying glass, we looked inside and saw what God had placed within it, that under the right conditions, will develop into a mature plant that produces fruit.  The analogy is of a born again believer having God-given potential to grow into a mature believer and produce fruit.  A good leader will help point the new believer to know and access the “right “conditions for growing into a mature fruit-producing Christian.
