WORKSHOPS (click for full descriptions)
Workshop leaders will share practical help related to this year’s theme. This year’s options include attending a 3-session track on a certain theme OR your choice of 3 individual workshops. In choosing Track 1, 2, or 3 you will attend all three sessions on that one track. Topics include:
1- YOUNGER MEN (teens and young adult men) – led by Pastor Todd Lozier of Cornerstone Baptist, Ames
These sessions are designed for teens and young adult men.
Title: Who did God make you to be?
This track answers the key question, “Who am I supposed to be when I grow up?”
- Session One: God’s Design
- Session Two: God’s Method
- Session Three: God’s Development
2- BROTHERHOOD – led by Pastor Paul Sand of Tabernacle Baptist, Poughkeepsie
- Session 1: On Track – the ideal of authentic co-laborers in Christ who share life together
- Session 2: Off Track – exploring what stands in the way of this relationship forming or what facilitiates its demise, taking note of opportunities for confrontation
- Session 3: Back On Track – thinking through forgiveness and reconciliation in the body of Christ.
3- ROLES WE PLAY – led by Pastor Scott Roloson of Grace Baptist, Binghamton
This track considers man as manager, looking at our roles in light of biblical stewardship:
- Session 1: Our Role as Husbands
- Session 2: Our Role as Fathers
- Session 3: Our Role as Money Managers
INDIVIDUAL WORKSHOPS – Select any three of the following workshops (instead of Tracks 1-3 above). They highlight these themes:
4- Rise Up and Assume Your Role (Senior men) -Pastor LD Maxson, Central Baptist, Binghamton, NY
This is a one-session workshop for senior-aged men. All members have a role to play. (Eph.4:16) As a senior adult, your work is not finished. Older men are called to mentor, counsel, instruct and set a wise and godly example for the younger men. This workshop will explore fulfilling these roles in the local church.
5- Let’s Be Men of Conviction – NF Director Jim Vogel
This one-session workshop presents a challenge from Jim on knowing what we believe – and living it.
6- HELP! I Think I Am Being Called to (Pastoral) Ministry – Pastor Mike Paris, First Baptist, Attica, NY
This one-session panel discussion considers full-time vocational ministry, allows time for questions, and offers prayer for men sensing a call to ministry.
God has called men to be involved in leading groups of people to change and grow spiritually. The role of shepherd or pastor is a special type of ministry to God’s people. Come interact with quality, seasoned shepherds in a panel discussion workshop for anyone who thinks he may be called to be part of this special servant corps.
7- Finding Your Place – Pastor Jim Butler
What does God want me to specifically do for Him? This one-session workshop shows how to discover the answer to this question and encourages you to faithfully serve in that “sweet spot”.
8- Dangerous Men – NF Director Brian King
In this one-session workshop, learn two ways God makes a major difference in men. And discover what being daring and dangerous has to do with it.
