STRATEGY TRAINING
Track 1A: For Youth Leaders
Track 1B: For Church Leaders
The Strategy Seminar looks at Jesus as our model for life and ministry. What was His mission? What were His motives? What were His methods? How did Jesus build a movement that would change the world? We’ll look at the periods of time and phases in Christ’s journey that are foundational for healthy ministry development. Typically done in 8 hours, the Expanded Strategy’s 10-hour format will provide additional coaching for implementation.
LEADERSHIP MULTIPLICATION
Track 2A: For Youth Leaders
Track 2B: For Church Leaders
The Leadership Multiplication Seminar looks at the leadership multiplication phase of Jesus’ ministry, from the time He selected the Twelve through His commissioning of them at the Ascension. What did Jesus prioritize during this phase of His ministry? How did Jesus prepare the Twelve for leadership? How did Jesus intentionally multiply His life through others?
Pre-requisite: Strategy Seminar or a Live2:6 Group

4 CHAIR DISCIPLING SEMINAR
Available in Spanish & English
The 4 Chair Discipling Seminar looks at the model of Jesus for being a disciple who makes disciples, answering the questions: What is a disciple? What is the process for becoming a disciple who makes disciples? Where am I at in that process, and what are my next steps?
FOUNDATIONS SEMINAR
The Foundations Seminar looks at the initial 18-21 months of Jesus’ ministry and six foundational priorities He established for a healthy disciple-making ministry. These six priorities are: Holy Spirit Dependence, Prayerful Guidance, Obedient Living, Word-Centered, Exalting the Father, Relationships of Love and Integrity.
