Nelson Searcy: Fusion - Turning First-Time Guests into Fully-Engaged Members of Your Church
Overview: Next Sunday, God will prompt hundreds of thousands of people in the US and millions around the world to visit a church for the first time. The Sunday after that, He will do it again. God is consistently blessing His Church with regular guests. Are we doing all we can to accept and honor His blessing? You don't have to try and figure it all out on your own! This session will help you reach and keep more first-time guests and close the “back door” of your church. The first 25 registrants will receive a complementary copy of Nelson’s book, “Fusion.” |

Mark Mittelberg – “The Questions Christians Hope No One Will Ask"
Overview: When answered, spiritual questions can bring truth and light, and they can help open a person's way to spiritual life. When left unanswered, those same questions can lead to doubt, frustration, and ultimately spiritual alienation from God. This session, based on Mark's book by the same title, will cover the top 10 questions Christians feel most uncomfortable being asked by a friend or colleague and will give insight on how to have the right responses. The first 25 registrants will receive a complementary copy of Mark’s book, “The Questions Christians Hope No One Will Ask.” |

Dennis Pethers – “More To Life”
Overview: This workshop seeks to encourage and equip every believer to make Jesus known by enabling them to gain a confidence and passion for sharing Him with their lost friends and neighbors. “More to Life” is a concept that will help your church release believers into effective evangelism and provide those not familiar with church with a way of understanding the relevance of Jesus for their lives. The first 25 registrants will receive a complementary copy of Dennis’ “Engaging Through Story Kit.” |
