Workshop Options

• Generosity 101- Dale Bliss 
  “Generosity simply means “readiness in giving.”  We know that giving is a supernatural strategy that the Almighty God used to accomplish everything from creation to salvation.  When Christians apply personal readiness to this supernatural strategy amazing things happen.  Discover how the generosity can liberate you, your family and your church!”
   

• Ministry 101- Deb Bryant
  Showing God's love in a practical way! Outreach and practical ways to do it!
   

• Technology 101- Seth Ross
   Do the terms Podcasting, Graphic Design, Video Conversion, Media Presentation, Web Hosting, and Audio Editing intimidate you? Well, the cookies have been put on the bottom shelf. Even small churches can create, graphics, websites, videos, & podcasts that appear as professional as any "big" church in town. And it can be done a small church budget. It's just a matter of knowing where to look for the right tools. Come find out what's possible for your church.
   

• Jewish History 101- Bob See
  Thirty-eight (38) lessons on the "Crash Course in Jewish History" by Rabbi Ken Spiro.  We will be listening to one of the lectures on the introduction by the Rabbi Spiro as it was given and recorded in Jerusalem.  For those who are interested in completing the series I have purchased the recorded lectures and will be providing additional lessons without charge to you.  This will give you a chance to hear and read the history of the Jews from a Jewish stand point and understanding.  Do we view Jewish history as they do?  Rabbi Spiro does not necessarily want you to remember dates but is interested in you learning life as God wants you to live it.
   

• Healthy Pastors 101- Gary Burnham
  Pastors…How do you stay healthy—spiritually, physically, emotionally, and otherwise? Church members…How can you nurture and encourage your pastor’s health?
   

• Bible College History 101- David Krogh
  The Bible Training Class (the forerunner to Oregon/Atlanta Bible College) was started in 1923 and continued until 1932.  This class will give an overview of the organizing of the class, the leadership, the curriculum, the students, what life was like, interesting antidotes, and an analysis of the impact the class had on the Church of God.
   

• Healthy Churches 101- Greg Demmitt 
  "Ever get the idea that nothing that is supposed to grow a church will work for yours? There's a good reason for that: it doesn't work for most churches. In the Bible, churches aren't told to grow, they're told to function properly, to be healthy. This class will look at the eight best signs of church health and how every church, regardless of size, can be healthier."
