Are you looking for answers to ministry burnout for today’s church leadership?

Ever feel like there’s not enough time, resources and strength to meet the demands of leadership? You’re not alone! Join with hundreds of leaders for a conference that could change the way you do ministry. Based on the Jethro principle for ministry and led by seasoned pastors who understand the dynamics of all stages within the church, this conference offers a special blend of rest, encouragement and godly wisdom.

"There are those whom God has called to fight His battles by direct engagement with the unbelieving world..."

"The leadership conference was a great blessing. I took three of my fellow pastors there. As only God would have it, they were talking about the very things we needed to hear and deal with. We came back from that conference as changed men. We then began a process of preaching through the Word to bring the teaching on holiness to our people. We have changed our mission statement and are in the process of changing our membership booklet. It has also changed how the pastors and elders view their ministry. In short, the entire direction of our church has changed from this conference. We’ve already signed up to come next year - we know God will give us what we need to hear and we pray that we will be just as obedient next year."
Thanks, Tim Webster
(Pastor, husband and father)
Special Guests
Our speakers and facilitators include:

Rev. Steve Cornell

Rev. Steve Cornell

The founder and Senior Pastor of Millersville  Bible Church. For the past 22 years, the lives of Steve and Becky have been interwoven with the birth and development of Millersville  Bible Church. As a young couple they were invited by the struggling Evangelical Mennonite congregation to leave their ministry as youth pastor at Horsham (PA) Bible Church, and start an entirely new church, whose mission was to serve the spiritual needs of both community and campus. The original seven members (including the Cornells) have now grown into a congregation of 500 people. He has been married for 23 years and is the loving father of four children, ages 14 to 22.

In addition to serving the congregation as senior pastor, Steve conducts a growing writing, radio  and conference ministry. His regular columns in the Sunday News of Lancaster and the Morning Call of Allentown attract a diverse readership, allowing him to apply Scripture to current issues and events. God uses Steve’s daily and weekend radio broadcast on WJTL, and his regular appearances as guest teacher on the Songtime radio network (Cape Cod, Mass.) to provide Biblical teaching on a range of subjects pertinent to the Christian life.
