An accredited Baptist minister\, he has served in theological education and ministry leadership in Canada and the United Kingdom and has a particular interest in Christian leadership\, ministry formation\, evangelism\, and preaching. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Masterclass is a series of events from our CBAC Leadership Development department\, seeking the transformation of our CBAC leaders through continued learning from world-class speakers.

Why are the concepts of equity\, diversity\, and inclusion critical to the intentional recruitment of church boards\, staff\, and ministry leaders in a way that exemplifies the radical hospitality of Jesus? What is our Christian duty to affirm the mutual humanity and giftings of God in all people of our church community\, creating access for our churches to each be a healthy functioning body of Christ?  \n\n\n  \n\n\nRepair and the Innocent Bystander: Reconciliation in Action in Luke \nJodi Spargur\, Red Clover\n\n\n\n\nWhat is our role and responsibility in the work of Indigenous/church reconciliation? What more can be done? What if we feel stuck in terms of next steps? This workshop will look at these questions and the witness of Luke for models of just action in situations of harm\, no matter who did the harm.  \n\n\n \n\n\nWalking Alongside: Gender\, Identity\, and the Church's Posture of Hospitality \nRev. Dan Pyke\, CBAC NextGen\n\n\n\n\nMany young people navigating gender identity carry real distress and wonder whether there's a place for them in the church. How do church leaders respond with both conviction and compassion?\n  This workshop briefly explores the current landscape\, then considers a ministry posture rooted in grace and truth: offering each person an identity as God's beloved\, practicing hospitality\, and walking alongside youth and their families. We'll close by working through practical questions churches are facing today.  \n  \n\n11:00am  \n\n\n\nIntercultural Belonging: Beyond Welcome to Co-creating Belonging \nDr. Dorothy Pang\, Tyndale Intercultural Ministries Centre\n\n\n\n\nIn Canada’s multicultural reality\, the church is the visible expression of the Gospel where “every tribe\, tongue and nation” experience unity-in-diversity through the Spirit. In this highly interactive workshop\, participants will explore how their own cultural lens shapes expectations\, practices\, and interactions.   The workshop introduces a developmental framework for growing in intercultural understanding and equips leaders to move beyond welcome and towards belonging. Participants will leave with practical tools for engaging cultural differences and co-creating belonging.  \n \n  \n  \n\n\nYouth Cohort \nAtlantic Baptist Women + CBAC NextGen\n\n\n\n\nThis guided discussion invites youth to gather around issues of justice that impact our communities and world. Hosted by Atlantic Baptist Women and CBAC NextGen\, this workshop is intended to spark meaningful conversation\, encourage new connections\, and help participants discern opportunities for ongoing engagement beyond the Justice Summit.  \n \n  \n  \n\n\nCreating Communities where individuals with disabilities can Belong\, Believe\, and Build \nDr. Paul Ross\, I AM Ministries \n\n\n\n\nDr. Ross is a ministry entrepreneur\, life long athlete\, and innovative advocate for those living with disabilities. In 2018 the YMCA awarded Paul with a Peace Medallion honouring him for his work and impact on the lives of people living with disabilities. As Founder and President of IAM Ministries Paul’s focus has been to help others discover opportunities\, build partnerships\, and enjoy life. This is achieved by creating initiatives that allow individuals living with disabilities to belong\, believe\, and build.
