| Together
in Christ: Re-root, Re-image, Re-create The focus of this year's event will be learning about a renewable way of working as God's people in the world. Focusing on a mix of theological ideas and practical applications, Dave Daubert and Kelly Fryer will spend three days walking with us to help us reclaim who we are, see what we have, and do what matters most to God. Using a mix of plenary sessions, interactive exercises, and workshops we'll explore the foundations of a way of working that joins WITH God rather than going out on behalf of God. We'll learn the tools needed to accurately see what we have to work with. We'll spend time thinking about what matters most to God and how we can help the church align its work with that in ways that make a difference. Whether you work in a congregation or in some other ministry setting, working in a renewable way overcomes many of the struggles we find confronting us and frees us up to lead boldly, equip and invite others to join in the work, mobilizes the church to join in partnerships with God and other who are up to what matters, and helps us move beyond counting people and money as our only measures of success. This event will be positive, challenging and hopeful in tone and help you think about and do what matters in new and life-giving ways. |
