JANUARY 7

Pastor Marion likes to refer to Lydia as her "daughter-in-love!" Lydia's message to the cohort is perfectly timed to conclude our online time together and begin a New Year of expanded opportunity. Lydia is holistic in her approach to life and ministry. As we shift our focus toward Summit, Lydia addresses the importance of leadership rhythms. Dr. Marion will close our monthly sessions by sharing the importance of finding a rhythm to live inside your core values that ultimately drive your missional calling statement. She will share why her book Choose Life, which is a core value, drives her calling statement to be a “Credible Voice of Female Leadership.”

Dr. Marion Ingegneri

Dr. Marion Ingegneri, M.A., ThD (h.c.), emerges as a multi-faceted leader, blending spiritual vision, strategic insight, and academic rigor in her expansive career. As the founder of Grace North Church in Phoenix, Arizona, she nurtured its growth from a six-member gathering in her living room to a network spanning three locations and five congregations over the course of 18 years.

Stepping down in 2021, she shifted her focus to mentoring national and global leaders. Marion's strategic acumen shines through in her founding role of the Ministry Leader Network (MLN). This platform underscores her commitment to empowering ministry and business leaders through opportunities such as MLN Leadership Cohorts, WIML (Women in Ministry Leadership) Collective, and Essential Conference. Her leadership impact resonates globally, with initiatives extending to Australia, Brazil, Canada, the Czech Republic, England, Israel, Germany, South Africa, and Thailand.

Marion's deep commitment to bringing revival and a prophetic voice into every encounter echoes the foundational fervor of The Foursquare Church, where she has held ministry credentials since 1988. Her collaborative ethos is evident in her various roles within the church, including the vice-chair of the board of directors. Her engagement extends to the national stage, having participated in meetings with Whitehouse staff and fostering educational partnerships, notably with Life Pacific University. Her apostolic approach aims to open hearts to the Holy Spirit.

In creative expression, Marion is the author of Choose Life, a book with a timeless message that unlocks generational blessings. Marion is the executive producer of the video series Unlocking the Gifts in You and Women in Ministry Leadership. Marion co-authors What Might We Imagine? a short devotional book. Her published work in the Quadram, a scholarly journal, highlights her academic excellence.

Marion's entrepreneurial spirit is also spotlighted in her role as the broker/owner of Gateway Properties, demonstrating her versatility and business insight, honed since 1981. As a lifelong learner, Marion's academic achievements include a Master of Arts in Strategic Leadership from LIFE Pacific University and an honorary doctoral degree in theology from Life Point Christian University. She contributes to academic discourse, teaches at various institutions, and holds certifications as a coach and trainer.

Family life is a cornerstone for Marion and her husband, Joe, who have been married since 1972. Their three married children and ten grandchildren are the joy of her life. Her journey with Christ, which began in 1971, underpins her commitment to marriage and family, reflecting the integrity and depth of her personal and professional life.
