CANCELED: Talking the Language: Enhancing Your Ministry Through Pop Culture

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED.

 

Art has always been used to convey spiritual truth. Cathedral windows, cave drawings and the Psalms were all created to tell stories of faith.  Today we are surrounded by art in the form of music, television and film that is more popular and more accessible than ever. Yet we often miss the spiritual value of this art because so much of it either seems to have nothing to do with faith or threatens it. This workshop will teach you the role popular art plays in our society, the pitfalls, and most importantly how you can use popular art to enhance your worship and ministry by “talking the language” your people are already speaking.

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED.

 

Mobile Ministers Are Healthy Communicators: how smart phone, tablet and Internet tools create efficient and effective communication.

But did you know you could track your mileage, broadcast your sermons, and collaborate on committee documents without going into the office? Learn tools and platforms to save you time, work virtually, increase your impact and engage with your community. We’ll also discuss why your community expects and needs you to be on the cutting edge of digital communication. Using your iPad, Android or laptop during this workshop is expected!
