Gene Appel - Implementing Your Vision: Getting From Here To There

Are you leading through a season of change?

Gene Appel gave an insightful talk at our latest Vision Arizona gathering.

Vision Arizona exists not just to inspire, but to equip pastors and their teams for church planting

A little about Gene:
In 1980 Gene Appel left central Illinois for Southern California to begin an internship at Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim. That internship would pave the way for full-time ministry.

Gene served as senior pastor at Central Christian Church in Las Vegas for 18 years and as lead pastor of Willow Creek's South Barrington, Illinois, campus for 5 years.

For the last 12 years, he's been right back where he started-Eastside Christian Church. Gene is deeply respected for his leadership, church strategies, and pastor's heart. Eastside's multiple campuses in the Anaheim, California, area have seen remarkable growth since Gene's return. Today, their vision is to reach 1 percent of the 5.8 million people who live within 20 miles of their hub campus.
