“Lead where you are.”
When Ronnie heard these words for the first time at the GLS, it rang his bell.
If you’ve been to the Summit before, you may remember how they talk about God ringing bells through what is taught.
“I felt lit up with passion and desire to bring the GLS to my country, Barbados,” Ronnie shares. “But I felt like such a small fish in a big pond. Six years later, my country hosted the GLS for the first time in March of 2017.”
Since Ronnie followed God’s lead to bring the GLS to Barbados, hundreds of leaders have been able to experience their own bell-ringing moments with God.
“The response we had from people there was overwhelming,” Ronnie explains. “People were very grateful. And even though the event was not live, many people said it was fabulous—worth every cent and more!”
So Ronnie had an idea.
What would happen if he brought a large bell to the Summit in Barbados, and asked people to ring the bell after sessions and during breaks—any time something rang their bell?

“We thought this would be a cool way to know when something was happening in people’s lives,” Ronnie explains.
“What we didn’t expect, was that our bell never stopped ringing throughout the Summit!”
By the time the Summit ended, the excitement around the GLS was so high that people had already paid to come to the event next year.
God is at work in Barbados.
Thank you for praying for these bell-ringing moments. And continue to pray for Ronnie and the Barbados team as they make plans to bring godly leadership principles and values to their entire country.
