To have Bishop Joseph Warren Walker III, one of the nation’s most recognizable transformational leaders, freely give insights on leadership alongside younger pastors will be an impactful and inspiring time for leaders navigating complex decisions.”

“I served in various ministerial settings before being called to my first and only pastorate in 2010, when I became the youngest pastor of Jackson’s oldest Black congregation—Mt. 海姆浸信会.

He also hopes to share his philosophy of facing the human challenges of the day.

“How do you bring vision and vigor to places and people that hope for more but who also long for glory days that may or may not return? We are called to serve the present age, informed by the past, while also inspired by a better future. 这种心态塑造了我服侍Mt. 掌舵，侍奉pg电子下载. I hope to speak to that reality and how I have, 蒙神的恩典, achieved much in ministry right here in the great state of Mississippi.”
