Relational Weekend Workshops
Relational Weekend Workshops allow participants to really experience Scripture within their own relationships as led by an Intimate Life Trainer. Each workshop focuses on a specific type of relationship such as marriage, parenting or single adult friendships. Together we explore and become better equipped through God's antidote to the "First Human Crisis" - removing aloneness
through developing or strengthening deep meaningful relationships with each other.
Key Objectives of Relational Weekend Workshops:
- All participants experience Scripture lived out in their relationship with God and with others, especially their "nearest ones."
- All participants are challenged to ask a different question concerning their closest relationships: "What should God be receiving from this relationship?"
- Some participants become equipped and motivated to minister to others, leading classes and groups as follow-up to the Workshops.
(See Relational Ministry Courses ).
Content Areas:
- More Than Married (marriage enrichment, using Intimate Encounters)
- Parenting with Intimacy (enrichment for parents, grandparents and child educators)
- Discovering Intimacy (single adult personal growth and relational enrichment)
- Relational First Aid (equipping in giving care)
- Relational Leadership (leading as Christ led)
- Emotional Fitness (training in maintaining emotional health & balance - equip people to care for others experiencing pain)
- Relational Foundations (fresh experiences with God's Word, God's Son and God's People)
- Kingdom Calling (reflecting God's Glory within the context of relationships)
