Demystify Discipleship
with Curtis Cecil
“Come, follow me” and “I will make you…” These are the words of Jesus. These are the words that Paul would echo “Follow me, as I follow Christ”. Today we have a shortage of individuals who feel able to lead in discipleship. Maybe we missed Jesus’ Model, Paul’s model, Barnabas’ Model, and others in scripture and have made it too difficult. In this workshop we will DEMYSTIFY discipleship and show how you can be a part of leading another in simple ways to “Come, follow” Jesus. -

Together in Christ: Opportunities, Barriers, and Bold Leadership in a Multiethnic Church
with Trevor Johnston
Together in Christ: Opportunities, Barriers, and Bold Leadership in a Multiethnic Church
Together in Christ calls pastors and church leaders to embrace both the promise and the cost of becoming a multiethnic church. This workshop speaks directly to pastors and ministry leaders who sense God inviting their congregation into deeper diversity but also feel the weight of what that requires. Drawing from personal experience as a pastor living and ministering in the United States, this session explores the realities behind the vision. This is not about chasing trends, but about rooting identity in Christ, embracing discomfort for the sake of the gospel, and becoming a church that reflects the reconciling heart of God. -
