How Crossway Works

  • START WHERE YOU ARE: You don’t need to have everything figured out before you begin. Start with the leadership responsibilities, interests, or challenges you have right now.
  • CHOOSE HOW YOU WANT TO GROW: Take one course, complete a certificate, or add electives as your interests and leadership needs develop.
  • LEARN AND APPLY: Crossway courses connect learning with real situations so you can use what you are learning in the work, ministry, organization, or community where you serve.
  • KEEP GROWING: Leadership development is a journey. Continue learning as your responsibilities change and new opportunities emerge.

Proverbs 20:5

“The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out.”
