Becoming What We Behold: The Mission of Looking Like Jesus
I.D.: Created + Redeemed = God’s Intelligent Design
Led By: John Eunjin Lee
Description: The world tells you that you can be whoever you want to be … but what does God say about that? IF we were created by God and then redeemed by this same God through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ then perhaps it is only fitting to begin to ask ourselves – why? In the I.D. breakout, we will further explore the person that God has created and redeemed you and I to be and what that means in the story that we find ourselves in.
The Strategy of “Free”
Led By: John Saddington
Description: There’s an art and science to giving things away. There is also a significant cost. We’ll take a look at how establishing an online platform on the foundation of “free” can be one of the most impactful elements in your witness today.
Christian Woman’s Leadership
Led By: Tina Choi
Description: To lead young single and married women to understand unique issues they face in religious leadership roles and the characteristics of Christian Women’s leadership. For those married women, I will discuss about the ways to support your husband in ministry.
How to Lead and Participate in a Praise Band
Led By: Danny Eun
Description: We have been neglecting the importance of praise music and the praise aspect of worship for far too long. Your goal as a praise team should not be “how can we best sounds exactly like the CD.” any cover band can do that. In this breakout, we will go over, dynamics, commitment, leadership, passion, and new fervor for praise team building. This is more of a structural session and less spiritual. Let’s build dynamic praise teams for the future.
Becoming What We Behold: The Mission of Looking Like Jesus
Led By: Ed Sohn
Description: So who do you strike up conversation with? Who do you weep with? Whose feet are you washing? This breakout session will discuss theological ideas behind the incarnational approach to missions and ministry, share some stories of what that’s looked like, and brainstorm short-term and long-term ways to shine Christ by resembling Christ in your context.
Serving Wihtout Burn Out
Led By: David Lee
Description: Many of us love to serve or feel called to serve in ministries, but how do we manage ministry, work/studies, friendships, family, dating, and personal time? We’ll discuss signs that tell you you’re burning out and ways to maintain your spiritual health amidst all your busyness.
Inside Leadership Development
Led By: Peter Lim, Jason Kong, Paul Tokunaga
Description: Join in on this panel discussion to talk about the ins-and-outs of leadership development. Hear from these ministry leaders about their view points of how they have developed leaders and ask them questions about things that are challenging you in your ministry.
