On June 16, 2005 Pastor Rick Warren of Saddleback Church, the author of the bestselling “Purpose Driven Life” met with the S3K Leadership Network – Spiritual Leadership Working Group. Over the course of an hour and a half, Pastor Warren discussed the challenges and strategies of building a compelling spiritual community. His advice spoke directly to the mission of S3K, and his interplay with the S3K leaders demonstrated the common issues facing both churches and synagogues in attracting new members while serving the existing community.
