Work, Eat, Sleep: Is having a Calling dead, or just out of date?

For many Christians, work and finding purpose remains elusive. Working in areas such as retail, business or government to name but a few can seem to be of lesser value than missionary or paid church work. This potential hierarchy of value in many everyday roles diminishes their contribution to expanding the kingdom of God. Yet, we spend more time at work than any other human activity, except perhaps sleeping! Come and explore ways in which you can learn to find God's purpose for YOU at work. If you are a church leader, discover how to set your Faith Community free to find and contribute to human flourishing in the wider society through a refreshing and practical theology of work.

Empowering Women in their Unique Calling

In this seminar, Amy will look at the posture that God is calling women to adopt as He invites them to join his army, taking up their unique calling to push back darkness.

Prayer and Justice: Bridging the Gap

Together we will delve into what it is to stand in the gap: praying with our eyes open to a world filled with injustice yet grounded in the Hope of a God who is just. We will be discussing the tension of living and praying with honesty + hope, holding the problem yet leaning into the prophetic and what it looks like to live in the reality of both answered and unanswered prayer.

Spiritual Direction and the Kingdom within: Responding to God's Invitations

Spiritual direction is coming alongside someone to discern the presence and action of the Spirit in their life. It is about slowing down and paying attention. We learn to see what the Father is doing (John 5:19) not just in a moment, but over sustained periods of a person’s life.

In this seminar, we will explore this and the deeper invitation of the Kingdom of Heaven expanding within. You will be introduced to the topic of spiritual direction, you will engage in spiritual direction practices, and we hope you will come away with fresh hope and invitations from God within your life as it is—even in areas of unfulfilled longing and suffering.

Leading when you don't know the Way: Remaining fruitful in an ever changing landscape.

Cultural commentators often describe our rapidly changing world with the acronym VUCA—volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous. In such a cultural landscape, leadership can feel especially daunting: how do we bring clarity and make decisions when no one seems to fully understand what’s happening? In this seminar, we’ll explore biblical principles and practical tools that can help us follow the leading of the Spirit—even when the path ahead is unclear.
