Whether you are at home, at work/school, or around church, the Gospel can be spread through the context of serving the unchurched and the unbelieving. This interactive workshop will focus on how the Good News and good deeds operate hand-in-hand to win the lost. We will be challenged to be creative, yet effective, in building bridges for people to come to Christ.
This workshop will challenge us to examine what is often hard to look at . . . the marginalized. Who are they? Where are they? As Christians, what is to be our response? Using video clips and discussion, we will see who God sees and discover areas where we can exercise compassion and ministry.
Recently, a number of books have come out addressing the so-called "quarterlife crisis"–how being in your 20s in American can be a time of great frustration and confusion. This workshop explores some of the important life questions raised, and how we might think about these as Christians. This workshop is geared both for those who are twenty-somethings and are going through this unique stage of life as well as for those who are parents of twenty-somethings trying to understand what is going on with their children.
Most of us go through dry spells in our spiritual life. This workshop will remind us that spirituality isn't just about what we do or how we feel spiritually--but about renewing our vision of the gospel and appreciating our place in it.
In his address to the Athenians, Paul declares that God is not far from us; that He is, in fact, all around us. Yet, for many Christians, God often seems far away, even non-existent. In this workshop we will explore ways we can become more aware of God’s daily presence and activity in our lives.
Identify what spirituality is and where we are in it in order to "jump start" it. It would involve looking at what keeps us from having or "doing" the spiritual life that we sense God wants us to have and suggesting ways to each other to "get on with it!"
Aim to see ways in which we are or can become salt and light in our daily lives in various contexts, including our families, marriage, neighborhoods, communities, and church.
Turning the routine into spiritual discovery. Whether it's driving to school, going on vacation, having a formal family time or catching time as you can, learn out to make time with your children meaningful for their spiritual and moral development.
How fast families can move from chaos to closeness.
Developing your gameplan, offense and defense, core values and family mission statement.
