Breakout Sessions
Darryl Jacobsen
The Heart of Parenting:
The 3 D's of Raising Kids
This session will help parents foster spiritual maturity in their children by focusing on the “3 Ds” of parenting: Discipline, Discipleship, and Discernment. From early discipline to character-building and wise decision-making, we’ll explore how God’s Word guides each stage.
Aaron Brucks
Motivated by Holy Fear:
Exploring the Affects of God's Rightful Rule And Reign
What motivates you? In this breakout we’ll learn about the true character of God and why He is worthy of our trust & reverence. It’s this Biblical fear which motivates us to real worship, obedience, and Gospel advancement.
Edgar Galdámez
Encounter with God:
How to Have Fellowship With God
What does your relationship with God look like? Daily fellowship with our Lord is key to growing spiritually. In this workshop we will examine one of Moses’ encounters with God to see what we can learn, why it’s important, and how we can apply it!
Dr. Greg Gifford
Spiritual Disciplines at Every Season of Life
Putting Delight Into Practice
What fuels delight in Jesus? Spiritual disciplines! In this break out session, we’ll learn how habits help cultivate a heart that sees Jesus as better and help woo us to delighting in Jesus. We want Him more than our sin because of our habitual actions. We’ll learn how God uses our Spirit-filled actions to shape our delight (Phil. 2:12-13).
Ed McCahill
Wisdom For Wealth:
Principles to Master Your Money
The Bible has over 2,300 verses on money, wealth and possessions! God provided these to help us understand our finances, improve decision-making, and provide purpose & direction in our stewardship. This session will coach you on how you can align yourself with His principles for managing wealth with wisdom, knowledge and peace of mind.
Dr. Graydon Cress
Husbands, Love Your Wives:
A Practical Guide to Sacrificial Love
How can we lay down our lives for our wives? Looking to the example of Jesus, we will try to put skin and bones on what servant leadership looks like in a marriage context, with some practical tools in communication, listening well, understanding how to navigate emotions, and hands-on service.
