Leadership Development

A big part of GOBA’s vision is to equip pastors and churches in fulfilling the Great Commission. There are a few ways in which GOBA seeks to develop leaders:

Monthly Training Opportunities: Led by experts in the ministry field on a wide range of topics, these two-hour sessions are usually held on the second Tuesday of the month from 9:00-11:00 am. These sessions areĀ currently being held at First Baptist Winter Park (1021 N New York Avenue, Winter Park, FL).

G.O.A.L. (Greater Orlando Adventures in Leadership):Ā monthly gatherings of a few pastors for encouragement, fellowship, and growth through various book studies for the sole purpose of developing leaders.

Mini-Seminars at Quarterly Executive Board Meetings: These meetings occur on the fourth Tuesday during January, April, July, and September from 10:00-11:30 am at Delaney Street Baptist Church (1919 Delaney Avenue, Orlando, FL). The first half of the meeting covers business matters, and the second half offers training on topics such as evangelism, discipleship, stewardship, or preaching/pastoral ministries.

One-Day Trainings: Offered once or twice per year, these full-day seminars allow for national experts to address a subject pertinent to pastors and leadership development.
