BREAKOUT SESSIONS Q&A
THE WORLD OF SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN
Every child is precious; each one is special. Some have greater needs than others, but all are loved in God’s sight. Come join a conversation about these children and their needs and how we can fully welcome them into our community, our society, and our hearts.
CENTRING THE BIBLE IN OUR DAILY LIVES
We gladly confess that the Bible instructs in everything we need to know for godly living, yet sometimes it difficult to integrate into our daily lives. How can we develop a deeper relationship with the Word—approaching it confidently, interpreting it faithfully, and rightly applying it to the situations we face every day?
GENDER IDENTITY AND SEXUALITY
In our day, a great deal of confusion surrounds questions of identity and sexuality. It’s a challenge to even understand these questions, let alone know how to handle them. Let’s have an open and honest discussion of the issues we face and how we can respond to them in truth and love.
HEALING FROM EMOTIONAL & SEXUAL ABUSE
We smile on the outside; we weep on the inside. The world is full of hurts, but Jesus came to heal both the visible and the invisible ones. In this session, let us take a step towards healing—both for ourselves and for those we love.
LIMITLESS (EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE)
“People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Break through self-imposed limits and grow in your relationships, career, and goals by discovering the power of emotional intelligence.
IDENTITY IN THE FAMILY OF GOD
A story in three acts. Do you know who you are—who you truly are? Let’s take a look at who we are, where we’ve come from, and where we are going— from God’s point of view, which should also be ours.
PANEL SESSION Q&A
HOW CAN I BE AN INFLUENCE
A panel discussion to learn how we can be people of influence in our community and in our workplace. We are called to be light to our dark world. So feel free to ask questions on how you and I can influence our world.
