Life’s 7 Ultimate Questions

In ministry, when real people ask you real life questions, where do you turn for ultimate answers?

During my next How to Care Like Christ seminar (see below for details), we’ll explore how to change lives with Christ’s changeless truth.

We’ll discover scriptural answers to life’s seven ultimate questions:

1. What is truth? Where do I find answers? (The Written Word—The Bible)

2. Who is God? Can I know Him personally? (The Living Word—The Trinity)

3. Who am I? What makes people tick? (Creation—Understanding People)

4. What went wrong? Why do we do the things we do? (Fall—Diagnosing Problems)

5. Can people change? How do people change? (Redemption—Prescribing God’s SOUL-utions)

6. What’s my purpose? What’s my destiny? (Consummation—Eternity)

7. How can I help? How can I change lives? (Sanctification—Biblical Counseling)

Enjoy Life Changing Seminars

I know you are committed to being fully equipped to minister to God’s people for God’s glory.

That’s why I want to introduce you to five seminars that all share the same passion: to provide Christ-centered, comprehensive, compassionate, and culturally-informed ministry equipping so you can change lives with Christ’s changeless truth.

Each of these seminars has been field-tested in churches, para-church organizations, and college and graduate school campuses. They are biblical, practical, user-friendly, and interesting.

You will enjoy engaging biblical teaching, creative PowerPoint presentations, stirring vignettes, life-changing interaction, moving personal applications, and relevant ministry implications.

At the Seminar, Men and Women Will:

*Be empowered by the heroic sisters of the Spirit to be powerful spiritual friends.

*Be enlightened to apply proven ways to help people find healing hope in the midst of deep pain.
*Be enabled to minister more effectively in cross-cultural settings by uncovering the buried treasure of wisdom contained in the legacy of women soul care-givers and spiritual directors.
*Be encouraged to skillfully practice the historic soul care and spiritual direction arts of sustaining, healing, reconciling, and guiding.
*Be equipped to build healing communities where Christians find courage and comfort in God and each other.
