THE PEOPLE BEHIND MOVEMENT

A shared calling.
A practical approach.

Equipping people to serve the local church is at the heart of Chad and Fallon’s work.

They serve at First Apostolic Church of Maryville in pastoral, administrative, and music leadership. Their resources bring together disciple-making, leadership development, restoration, ministry systems, and worship.

Movement Leadership Solutions gives that work a home: a place to find a useful book, strengthen a team, and take a thoughtful next step.
