Course Overview

Volunteers are the foundation of any thriving ministry—but attracting, equipping, and engaging volunteers is harder than ever. In this church leadership online training course you’ll discover how to connect passion and purpose and, in the process, find and retain volunteers who are a joy to lead. Using Group’s proven L.I.F.E. volunteer equipping strategy (Look, Invite, Familiarize, Encourage), you’ll learn how to discover, recruit, train, and retain the volunteers your ministry needs. You’ll also master key volunteer management skills: placing volunteers in the right roles, redirecting volunteers who aren’t in their sweet spot, and firing volunteers who need to go. This training will equip you to shift from “getting warm bodies” to engaging people in vibrant, satisfying, effective ministry.
