Connection Points:

 
10:30 AM Multi-Site Churches with Mike Quinn
Is multi-site the new normal? Churches are growing beyond the limitations of a single service in one building. Expanding the traditional model, they are embracing the concept of one church with more than one site: multiple congregations sharing a common vision, budget, leadership, and board. This breakout session dives into some real stories of a multi-site church in Southern California. Come explore new waters.

El Pastor y su Vida Devocional con Heber Paredes
La mayoría de ministros estamos plenamente convencidos del valor y la importancia de cada programa y cada actividad que nos ocupa en nuestro noble ministerio. Quizás de lo que no estamos conscientes algunas veces es que mientras esas actividades nos absorben y mientras clamamos a Dios por soluciones, perdemos la perspectiva de que lo que más necesitamos no son esas soluciones, sino una comunión intima con el Dios del cual es la obra, el ministerio y nosotros mismos.
Monterey
10:30 AM Leadership with Steve Myatt
What makes a leader a Christian leader? Too many churches and parachurch groups operate under secular leadership principles and strategies without considering what Scripture teaches. In this breakout session we will define a uniquely Christian leader from the inside out, from godly character and commitment to pure motives and a servant attitude.
Huntington A
10:30 AM The Elephant in the Home with the Brutons, Whitfords, and Lairds
Let's just be honest...your spouse is the first one who noticed the elephant. You've done your best to ignore it. But the elephant is still there, and he's not going anywhere.  The "elephant" we speak of is the constant tension between balancing ministry and family. This breakout session will offer stories of "been-there-done-that" wisdom, as well as some encouragement on how to deal with the "elephant." Come away knowing how to succeed at home so you can succeed at church.
Huntington B & C
10:30 AM Fresh Preaching, Fresh Ideas with Byron Klauss
There's nothing like the weekly challenge and responsibility of exposing a text to keep ministers humble. This breakout session will offer some practical advice for preaching in our culture, as well as some general encouragement for those who are seeking a fresh wineskin for a timeless message of redemption.
Laguna A
