Holiness Collaborative 2023

November 7—9, 2023

The Language of Holiness

The Holiness Collaborative was launched to provide a setting for individuals passionate about the transformative work of the Holy Spirit to gather for a time of encouragement, equipping, and resourcing. We gather, carrying in our hearts the contexts and lives we are blessed to minister to, seeking the Lord’s help to faithfully continue serving and seeing His transformation take root.

This year’s Holiness Collaborative will look at “The Language of Holiness”. Through small group discussions, teaching sessions, and other collaborative approaches we will look at the power of our words as we share the powerful message of Holiness with those we serve.

Leadership Team

  Bill Kierce is the President of The Francis Asbury Society, husband to Kim, father to three grown children, and grandfather to 8 grandkids. He is deeply convinced that we are incapable in our own strength to fulfill God’s call or to live a life that wholly pleases God. He recalls the experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit as “I was met that night with waves of God’s presence overwhelming me with the reality of His love and power. I have claimed that as my initial baptism with the Holy Spirit and entrance into entire sanctification.”

Josh Hallahan is the Director of Discipleship at The Francis Asbury Society, husband to Kelly, and father to Caleb, Seth, Elizabeth, and Rebekah. Josh firmly believes that discipleship ought to be at the heartbeat of all Christ followers, and he counts it an absolute joy to walk alongside the men and women Jesus has entrusted him with. Josh loves gathering like-minded individuals together to collaborate and encourage one another to continue serving Jesus faithfully.

Dr. Matt O’Reilly is the lead pastor at Christ Church in Birmingham Alabama Husband to Naomi. Father to Patrick, Vivian, and Jackson. Dr. Matt O’Reilly is Lead Pastor at Christ Church Birmingham. He is a fellow of the Center for Pastor Theologians, and Director of Research at Wesley Biblical Seminary where he leads the doctoral program and teaches New Testament, preaching, and pastoral ministry.
