Workshops Session #1, 11:30 a.m.
How to build an effective dramatic ministry
(Jett Farrell and David Vega - Eyes of Fire Productions)
The drama ministry is a valuable and extremely effective ministry tool is often misunderstood and misused in the church world. Rather than giving a list of ‘use this’ techniques or scripts, this workshop will share some wisdom and knowledge to help equip leaders to write their own material, equip and train actors, understand the benefits and effects of drama and human video, and take the step outside of the box of ‘church skits’ into an effective and fun ministry that could be a blessing to your church and beyond.
Pray Big or Go Home - How to Ignite a Student Mission Movement on your campus
(Paul Van Der Werf - SVM2)
All mission movements and revivals are rooted in prayer. By examining the greatest student mission movements in history, the Haystack Prayer Movement and Student Volunteer Movement, we can learn several principles that are relevant to seeing a student mission movement on your campus today.
Loving from God’s Perspective: Your Part in a Changing World
(Mark Klink - Food for the Hungry)
Radical… that’s what Christ’s love is. Sure, He died to reconcile us, but what is that really about? Discover an eye-opening way of looking at His reconciliation that will transform the way we reach out to those next door and around the world. Learn how together we can radically love people and see lives changed!
Getting out of the Bubble
(Joe Mason, Cassie Mason, Nick Beezhold - Partners in Christ, Int.)
This workshop will give you a quick overview of what "worldview" is and how it affects cross-cultural ministry. Learn cultural do’s and don'ts, the gray line between right and wrong, and how to fit into a culture different from your own.
C.S.I. India: Investigating William Carey
(Bo White - Food for the Hungry)
Who will be the next William Carey? Who will lead the charge for missions in a postmodern era? By the end of this session, this question should become clearer as we look at the legacy of Carey, considered by many to be the ‘father of modern missions.’ Specific attention will be given to Carey’s impact on the entire culture and the global context in which Carey sought such transformation. Maybe the next William Carey sits among us?
The Verse that Changed the World
(Bob Blincoe – Frontiers)
Beginning in Genesis 12:3 we will trace the relentless purpose of God to bless all the peoples of the earth, and discover how this purpose is amazingly connected to His purpose for all who belong to Him.
Women Who Go

Church Planting Movements: the Great Miracle of the 21st Century - and how your Church Based Team can go for the glory

A recent research trip to Bangladesh confirmed that God is indeed drawing hundreds of thousands of Muslims into His Kingdom through the glorious work of Church Planting Movements. To borrow from the Apostle John, 'what we have heard, seen and touched' we will proclaim to you ... and explain how you and/or your Church Based Team could give your life for something this glorious!
Strategically Reaching the Leaders of Nations

Who Is This Jesus Anyway?

Eight Objections to Missions
(Wade Remer – Wycliffe Bible Translators)
