Meeting Schedule
Dave & Chan Meeten
Monday & Tuesday
[OM Room]
Developing your place in the church
The New Testament says that we all have a place and a function in the local church. But how, in practice, do I find that place? How do I discover the gifts that God has given me? How can I, especially as a young person, begin to contribute, develop my gifts and find my place in the church?
Dai Patterson
Tuesday & Thursday 11:30am
[Main Marquee]
Order in the church
Freedom in the local church is often experienced and talked about, but the New Testament also has much to say about order in the assembly, perhaps less often discussed. This seminar will consider this important aspect of church life.
Andrew Carter
Monday & Thursday 11:30am
[Main Marquee]
Issues of Sexuality
The issue of sexuality in UK culture is arguably the greatest problem facing the church today. This seminar will not approach the subject from a pastoral point of view but rather will look at the underlying Biblical teaching and how many have misinterpreted this today.
Yan Nicholls (YWAM)
Thursday & Friday 11:30am
[Annex Room]
Personal evangelism
Not everyone finds it easy to witness to the Lord in the context of their normal daily life. This interactive, practical workshop aims to help and empower people to share their faith simply and effectively.
Peter Elks
Tuesday & Thursday 11:30am
[Quinta Lounge]
Reconciliation
It is always sad and disappointing when there is breakdown in relationships and such matters are real pastoral challenges. There are keys however to bring about reconciliation and these will be discussed in this seminar.
Dave Vine
Monday & Friday 11:30am
[Quinta Lounge]
Who is the Pastor? Taking responsibility
This seminar will consider the pastoral ministry in the local church. In particular it will consider the need for all of us to take personal responsibility for our own lives and for all of us to care for one another, while recognising that there will be those in the church who are specifically gifted in this ministry.
Aaron Beecher
Tuesday & Friday 11:30am
[OM Room]
Money, Money, Money
Perhaps surprisingly, Jesus spoke more about money than most other subjects. What did He teach? What should be our attitude towards money? What are the areas in church life where these principles apply most? This seminar will explore these and related questions.
Mark & Helen Jones
Monday & Friday
[Annex Room]
Church rocks! Don't give up on the church.
Sadly we hear increasingly of people disengaging from church. This seminar will look at some of the causative factors, but more importantly, discuss the wonderful blessing there is in being part of a vibrant community of the Lord’s people.
Meetings.
An early-morning prayer meeting is held each day from 07:15-08:00 in the library in Quinta Hall.
