Seminars overview: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (coming up)

MONDAY

Speaker Topic Description
Helle Rønne Samuelsen Church planting: Evangelism that results in new churches Jesus said: “Go into all the world and make disciples” and out of that the church grew. In this workshop we will investigate what this beautiful process can look like today, and look at how we can plant missional churches where everyone gets to play and where discipleship is the key instrument to church growth.
Katrina, “Tina”  Hedén  Created to create – Being in the image of God:
co-creators, angled mirrors and stewards
To get to know Jesus is to get to know and be true to our (creative) self. To understand what He has planted in us as his co-creators in everything we do. To reflect God and use our creativity as our tools and weapons in his kingdom. To say yes to the uniqueness of being oneself through the unique expressions is a way of worship and honor God.

This means that anxiety can be an early detection system that we’re depending on something other than God for our well-being.
