Equipping for Growth Conference
Saturday, Jan. 17, 9-1 pm
at Christ Fellowship

There are two questions we use to check our progress at Christ Fellowship: “How are you growing?” and “Who are you impacting?” The Equipping for Growth Conference is designed to help you better answer the first question with a half-day conference that will help you make significant progress.
 
Kingdom Living Now | 
Jesus’ most famous talk “The Sermon on the Mount” paints a picture of a blessed life, one that can stand firm in life’s storms, one that brightens others’ lives, and in the end receives God’s eternal rewards. But how do we live that out, practically speaking? This year, Equipping for Growth, has a variety of training designed to inspire you and spur you on to continue to grow.

No matter where you’re at along the path, choose from a variety of seminars to find ones that are just right for you. Each topic is designed to give you great tools and provide a taste of what Next Step courses offer on an ongoing basis.
 
A New Year is about to begin, resolutions will be made, and you will need to get equipped for the journey. Here’s to making 2015 your best year yet!

 

Free childcare! Be sure to request it on your registration form.

Sessions

Session One Workshops

Kingdom Righteousness—The Narrow Gate

How can a person, marred by the fall, entangled and trapped in sin, ever be acceptable in God’s presence? How can sinful people ever be righteous before the all Holy Judge of the Universe? This session will teach you how to be “Right” with God (the biblical doctrine of Justification). Led by Rafe Wright.

Money Matters: Starting the Conversation

Money is an integral part of everyday life. It is no coincidence, then, that Jesus had so much to say about it. If it was so important to Jesus, it is vital that we learn how to encourage one another to grow in this area and to have meaningful conversations. Led by Steve Chappell and Ken Stoneking.

Casting Your Net

Oftentimes we cast our “prayer nets” out into the ocean. Where do they go? What we are fishing for? How do we respond when our nets come up empty? We will look at prayer strategies to aid in our prayer lives. Led by Emily Bradford.

WISDOM Process

The WISDOM Process presents a six-step process for resolving tough issues. It is founded in biblical truth, ancient wisdom and contemporary research. Many have found that this process saves time and reduces confusion while generating better, wiser decisions with less conflict. Led by Bruce Miller.

Judging Others/Church Discipline

What do I do when I know a person in my group is engaged in sin, and has no interest in stopping it? How can I best show love to someone who is hurting because of sin? Let’s look at judging others and church discipline and how we handle it at Christ Fellowship. Led by Scott Doust.

Introduction to Bible Study Methods

We know the Bible is God’s Word and that reading and applying it is important. But we can sometimes struggle to know what God is communicating through it. We will get an overview of Bible study methods and practice reading strategies to help us better discover what it says. Led by Lisa Scheffler.

Session Two Workshops

Money Matters: Starting the Conversation

(See description under Session One Workshops)

Kingdom Righteousness—the Wise Builder

Having received the gift of righteousness, how then shall we live? How does the wise person go about building their spiritual house? This session will show you how to live a life pleasing to God and provide a framework for daily living (the biblical doctrine of Sanctification). Led by Rafe Wright.

Bridges that Unite: Understanding the Poverty Cycle and how to Minister to those in caught in it.

“If you close your ear to the poor, you will cry out and not be heard.” Learn how people from poverty view middle-class churches and how to address those perceptions in ministry. Explore solutions and tactics in ministering to the disadvantaged. Led by Stephanie Tyson and Melissa Willmarth. 

Are you a Peacemaker?

Peace is more than a quiet home, it is more than relationships void of conflict. Peace is more than the absence of worry and frustration. In this session we will look at peacemakers and give you some practical ways to become one in your home, at work or in the world. Led by Lynde Griggs. 

Christ’s Healing Choices: His Beatitudes

“Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor.” “Happy are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” These are only two of the beatitudes from the sermon on the mount. Have you ever thought about how they impact your daily life? In this session we will look at how to practically apply these to our lives. Led by Jim Smith.

Clarification of the Law—The Christian and the Old Testament Law

What is the New Testament believer’s responsibility to the Law of Moses? What does it mean that Jesus is the fulfillment of the Law? What is the Law of Christ? This session will help you understand the place of Law, in the age of Grace. Matthew 5:17-48. Led by Mark Wade. 

Session Three Workshops

How to Read the Bible: Essential for Christian Growth

Most everyone owns or has access to a Bible. They have heard it quoted (and misquoted), had it preached to them and have seen multiple references to it on signs, greeting cards and bumper stickers. But have you really read it? Led by Ken Stoneking.

Kingdom Righteousness—Two: Gates, Trees, Houses

We’ll answer the questions: How does one find eternal life? How does one evaluate real faith? How does one secure their future? This session will clearly define the “Narrow Path” and how to stay on it. Led by Mark Wyatt

Overhauled – Hearts Made New

Jesus taught, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” Do ‘pure hearts’ just happen or are there steps of obedience believers should take so Paul’s charge that “Christ be formed within you” becomes a reality in our lives? Led by Don Closson.

My Money/God’s Money: Organizing Your Finances

How much am I supposed to give? Is it all God’s money? Does a budget make a difference? What is the only area of your life God asks you to test him? We will walk through basic budgeting with a focus on God. Led by Shane Griggs.
