BREAKOUT TITLES

Navigating Spiritual Gifts

Are you often confused about spiritual gifts and how they work? Join  us for an engaging and practical Breakout session designed to help you explore the various spiritual gifts outlined in the Bible and understand how they function within the church community. Whether you are new to the concept of spiritual gifts or looking to deepen your understanding, this breakout will provide you with clear insights and practical tools.

Multi-Generational Ministry

Ministering to women from multiple generations can be challenging. How do we successfully cross the generational lines and learn to listen, respect, and love one another, despite our different ages, perspectives, and ideas? Join us for this much-needed conversation on how to build bridges, accept, and honor saints of all ages as we learn how to better show each other God’s amazing grace.

Jesus > Culture

The teachings of Jesus are not intimidated by the shifting culture or the confrontation of the world. At the same time, we cannot separate His words from His radical compassion for sinners. Let’s search the Scriptures and uncover the heart of Christ together.

Navigating Tensions

The Christian life is often characterized by tension as we live as citizens of heaven on earth. As we follow and serve Jesus, we will encounter relational and cultural tensions, even with fellow believers. Let’s seek God’s heart for wisdom in navigating these challenges, fostering interpersonal growth, and pursuing unity as peacemakers and heralds of the Gospel of reconciliation.
