Stewardship for the Long Haul

Peacemaking

Living Out the Implications of Our Faith in the Workplace

Christian Overman, Executive Director of Worldview Matters

While the U.S. unemployment rate is the highest in 25 years, over 50% of American workers say they are dissatisfied with the jobs they have. We have a workplace problem that no amount of economic stimulus can fix! In this session, we’ll explore the biblical “Theology of Work,” and view real life examples of how the Christian worldview can shape values, influence behavior, and create God-honoring culture in the workplace.

Spiritual Formation & the Man’s Journey

Dr. Jeff Johnson, Executive Director of Men’s Ministries International

International speaker and leader Jeff Johnson calls on men to connect their heads and hearts. Our lives are too easily compartmentalized and spiritual growth becomes a set of activities associated with church programs, Bible study, and small groups. However, to be effective men of God, Jeff believes men need to open up all areas of life to the heart-shaping work of God’s Holy Spirit. Discover how God shapes a man’s heart throughout life’s journey and how we can respond fully to God in all of life.

Rocks, Mirrors and Shoes - Leadership in Action

Colonel Tom Greco US Army (Ret)

Anyone who has influence on another is a leader.  The question in life is not whether or not to be a leader, but rather what kind of leader we want to be.  How do we respond to God’s shaping influences in life so that we may become godly leaders that influence other’s lives for the good? Explore the heart-shaping work of building leaders that God is doing everyday and how you can yield to His leadership in your life. Discover the Know, Be and Do of being a leader for God.

Forensic Examination of Firearms and other Magic

Brian Smelser, Firearms Examiner WSP Crime Lab

Is it really as easy as CSI makes it look? How do real crime scene investigations study operability and function testing, general rifling characteristics, distance determination, trajectories and reconstruction? Sorry, no firearms will actually be fired during the presentation. What does this have to do with Jesus? Come and see…
