EPIC: Empowering People, Inspiring Change
Veritas provided the language. EPIC provides the how-to. As a follow-up workshop to Veritas, EPIC talks about the spirituality, chemistry and strategy of leading healthy missional change, and equips leaders with the necessary tools.
EPIC also explores the inner life of the leader and how to be a non-anxious presence while leading through the turbulent waters of change.
Many pastors and lay leaders lead change from the seat of their pants. EPIC helps us to think through the process of change sequentially from beginning to end.
EPIC does not tell churches what to change, but how to change… and how to change in a way that is civil, compassionate, and Christ-honoring.

EPIC UPDATE!
A DVD version of EPIC is in the works. We anticipate having DVD binders available for order through the Covenant Bookstore in the late fall, in a similar manner as the Veritas DVD.
