Our workshops, seminars, and curriculum create opportunities for faith and family to connect.  The following core principles will be presented within each workshop:

  1. Evaluation of our lives based upon God's Word and His will for our lives—Psalm 139:23, I Chronicles 28:9, Romans 8:27, Ephesians 4:23, Nehemiah 1:4, Romans 12:1-2—Spirit Led.
  2. Kingdom-based planning that sets priorities to align with God’s kingdom and His righteousness—Matthew 6:19-21;33, Hebrews 4:12, Philippians 3:12-14, Colossians 3:1-2, Galatians 6:7-8, Nehemiah 2:11-18—Word driven.
  3. Becoming a “cord of three strands” as we look to support one another—Ecclesiastes 4:9-12, Proverbs 27:17, Hebrews 10:24-25, 2 Timothy 16-17, Colossians 3:16-17—Fellowship with God’s people.
  4. Sharing Christ with Others--Mt. 28:19-20, Acts 1:8, 2 Cor. 5:17-20, Mt. 5:13-16, Rom. 1:16--the missional life in Christ to make disciples. 

Please pray for opportunities to encourage families to pursue God's word within their homes.  Thank you. 


The Missional Life

This workshop provides individuals and families the opportunity to explore and discover God's mission for their lives.  The workshop is designed to engage adults and youth of all ages around the idea of missional living; in essence, being a missionary where God has positioned you; the pursuit of being as missional locally as we are globally.  By design, this event will encourage both individuals and families of all shapes and sizes to look at their lives, resources, and relationships through God's perspective.  Most importantly, this event will provide dedicated time to refocus your roles and goals before God's Word.  Are you ready to pursue God's mission for your family?  What are you waiting for?  We encourage you to come as families.

"And He (Christ) has committed to us the message of reconciliation.  We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us."  2 Corinthians 5:20

The Family by God

We live in a day where the world around us is attempting to redefine the family.  Yet, the family, by God is not something that anyone can just re-invent.  Regardless of radical judges and any liberal agenda, the family by God is the essential building block of our local churches and communities.  This workshop will encourage you to examine and engage your roles and goals as families.  Most importantly, it will equip you and your family to build the foundation of your home based on God's Word- His perfect design.  Primarily for parents and older children (12 yrs and up).

"So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.  The God blessed them, and God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."  Genesis 1:27-28 

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like the wise man who built his house on the rock.  The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house;  yet it did not fail, because it had its foundation on the rock."  Matthew 7:24-25

"Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it"  Psalm 127:1

The Essence of Everything (Men's Leadership Workshop/Conference)

A men's workshop focused on spiritual leadership in the home.  This is a much needed message for our day.  Our marriages and children are being attacked from every side.  This seminar will focus on the biblical reality of being a godly husband and father.  Most importantly, it will provide men a spiritual armory to assist them in their battle for the eternal welfare of their homes and ultimately the church.  Men, to lead as Christ led, we must first make Him the essence of our everything.  Are you ready to take that step?

"Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.  For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church...Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her..."   Ephesians 5:22-23, 25

A Marriage Coram Deo (Marriage workshop and/or retreat)

Unlike any marriage retreat you have ever experienced.  Be ready, as husband and wife, to stand before the face of God. This hands-on workshop will take you beyond yourself to a place of greater adoration and reverance for God and His divine institution of marriage.  Like Isaiah, you and your spouse will become "undone" to reveal what your marriage really looks like from God's perspective.  You will learn key principles of effective communication and greater intimacy.  Are you ready to live within the sacred oneness that God created for marriage?  For married couples of all ages. 

"...Woe is me, for I am undone!  Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts."   Isaiah 6:5

A Young Knight's Quest Weekend Adventure

A father and son event that combines the valor and excitement of knighthood with core biblical truths.  Every boy, with the assistance of his father or mentor, will construct a shield of faith and learn about the quest that God has called all men to seek.  The program is ideal as an "overnighter"; however, can be adapted to a Saturday event.  The sessions are full of ideas and resources that will provide the foundation for fathers and mentors to lead their boys in the godly pursuit of biblical manhood while celebrating the tremendous adventure of boyhood.  Recommended ages: boys between 7 years old and 14 years old.  All boys must be accompanied by their father and/or mentor.  Grandfathers are welcomed as well!  Includes our devotional resource for fathers and sons/families, Justin's Adventure: A Young Knight's Quest.

“...we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, His power, and the wonders He has done.  He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which He commanded our forefathers to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they would tell their children.”  Psalm 78:4-6

Echoes of Unfading Beauty Workshop

This workshop is designed to encourage fathers to be the godly dad that God desires for His little girls. Within the depths of a daughter's heart is a seed destined for womanhood.  Every father is blessed by God to co-shepherd his daughter's heart for the Lord.  It is in the reality of this relationship that young girls begin to develop an understanding of a genuine love; a love that is built upon the foundation of Jesus Christ.  Dads, you have the opportunity to be the first godly man that nurtures the "unfading beauty" within your daughter's heart-do not miss this opportunity.  Several areas of focus will include:

  1. The Goal- Womanhood in Christ
  2. The Greatest Cultivating Tool
  3. Words that Grow Eternal Fruit
  4. Prayers of Enduring Love

"Your beauty should not come from outward adornment...Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight."  1 Peter 3:3-4

Note:  For all church-related speaking engagements-we only ask that travel costs be extended as well a love offering for our speaker.  Our workshops and speaking costs will vary depending upon the size and duration of the teaching.  Most often, we recommend a speaking gift (customarily between $250-$500) be given in addition to covering the costs of travel.  Resource cost will vary based on the number attending the event.
