Saturday Morning Seminars

Seminars are a fantastic tool for impacting men's growth in discipleship!  Here are 3 reasons:  1) The right speaker can re-ignite their passion for Christ and His kingdom.  Most men already know what they should be doing; what they need most is a fresh dose of energy and inspiration to live for Christ.  2)  Since most men read very little, a 3 hour seminar can give a man more content that is relevant to his walk with Christ than he normally gets in a whole year through reading. 3)  What men need, even more than biblical content, is connection with other men who face the same challenges and struggles they do.  Our seminars always include discussion groups.

Can Our Church Afford to Host Such a Seminar?  The answer is most likely, "yes."  Most of our seminars are 2 1/2-3 1/2 hours long.  Our standard seminar fee is only $18/man with a minimum guarantee of 25 men.  The host church would need to cover travel expenses of over 50 miles. Contact Gary for more information about our seminars.
