Every day we face voices and forces battling for which version of ourselves we will accept, believe, and put our energy behind. Jesus provides a perfect example of a Godly life; how to live with grace, courage, and healthy masculinity regardless of the outside forces set against us. This seminar will explore a spiritual revolution in our own lives and the world around us; this is Jesus, Jesus is in me, this is me.
The book of Jude states; “Have mercy on those who are doubting”. Everyone experiences doubt at some point in their lives; we can be confident God is not offended by it. Instead, He invites us to discover evidence to support our faith. This session is an opportunity to listen to others’ questions and ask your own in a safe setting.
GI Joe heroes used to famously say, “Knowing is half the battle!”. Men can know the results of temptation but too few understand the tactics of “how” temptation is disguised and creeps into our lives.
We’ll learn the story of Achan and see how temptation broke him and nearly broke his nation and how we can be stronger.
Far too often, our lives are overwhelmed by the demands of work, family, and social circles, leaving little time for meaningful connection with God. In this session, we will answer questions such as; how can men provide for their families and enjoy life in a sustainable way? What does it mean to honor the Sabbath? What’s the best way to lead a life marked by productivity and rest?
Our words carry significant weight and power; every relationship in our lives can be strengthened or damaged by how we speak in them. This session will explain how to harness our words and the intention behind them to bring new life into our relationships, rather than drag them down.
Age, job or achievements do not automatically make a boy a man; it is the way he chooses to live his life. Brian describes five characteristics that mark authentic manhood; a vision for life, the courage to take a minor position, a team player’s mindset, a strong work ethic, and the ability to be a gracious protector. In this session, learn to embrace these characteristics and create a new path of strength and integrity to become the person God intended.
God promises to support us in our walk of faith, but what does that look like when we are criticized, condemned, or shunned for our belief? This session will explore how to respond to the cultural and
moral challenges of today’s world with strength and grace, and how to keep faith in trying times.
A prayerless life is a powerless life; yet many men struggle with prayer. Derwin will teach how to become powerful by learning how to pray like Jesus.
You are more than your past when God holds your future. Learn how to courageously rise above society’s labels and step away from the world of lies, judgment and self condemnation. Join Derwin for this challenging session that will stretch the limits of your faith to experience a fearless and limitless life.
As the 2024 No Regrets Men’s Conference concludes, this momentum can go with us. Ricky will share how when men find themselves in a tough spot, they need to remember God's promises. He will challenge us
with principles and practices on how to lean into God’s power to fearlessly live in His strength.
Many Christians discuss living “radically” for God, but what that life looks like is deeply shaped by the culture we live in. Through the Parable of the Prodigal Son, Skye will explore how consumer culture and the Missional Church can define a radical life, the shortcomings of both definitions, and what a radical life looks like according to the Bible and God’s Kingdom.
The New Testament describes the church and its purpose not as an event, a building, or an institution; it describes a community living in unity with God and one another. Yet, the modern Church often struggles and is influenced more by worldly values. In this session, Skye will explain what the Bible says about the Church, its purpose and what fulfilling His mission looks like in today’s world.
If someone asked ten people the definition of ‘parenting’, they would get at least ten different answers; from “getting my child through college” to “having them be happy and successful.” By looking into Psalm 78, this session will examine what it means to disciple our children’s hearts and leave a positive, lasting impact on their lives.
Faith is putting trust in your Savior. Fear is a part of life but it does not have to grip or define us. We are not alone. In this seminar, Joby will present how to develop a ‘roadmap’ for life and fearlessly follow Jesus’ teachings and lean on His strength.
Many of us feel a pressure to be tireless, to answer the demands and pressures of work, family, and even the Church’s expectations with relentless strength and energy. This attitude can easily leave us feeling drained and empty; in this talk Tim will explore the life of Daniel, the causes of his weariness, and how men can acknowledge their limitations without guilt or shame.
Forgiveness seems a simple step to take until a major disagreement or argument arises, whether with family, friends, or coworkers. There’s always a backstory or circumstance to complicate reconciliation; this session will explore what forgiveness is, what it isn’t, and how to achieve it with faith and grace.
Despite its importance, sharing one’s faith often feels intimidating or awkward, especially with close friends or family. There are endless strategies to improve confidence and delivery but many feel gimmicky, others inauthentic. In this seminar we’ll explore the advice Jesus gave to his disciples on sharing their faith; it may be far simpler than it seems.
Our lives are full of distractions, from advertisements to work demands to our phones’ notifications; the world expects so much from us. Psalm 119 asks; “How can a young man keep his way pure?” Join Craig as he uses this session to answer that question with Biblical wisdom and practical applications for daily living.
Loss happens to every person; often unexpectedly, sometimes traumatically. All losses will change lives, create unforeseen challenges, and require adaptation to recover from. God understands our struggles and equips us with tools to overcome them; this seminar will explore practical, Biblical ways to cope with loss and grow in our faith through it.
Ephesians 2:10 states; “We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them”. To walk in the good works of our own lives, we must discover and embrace God’s unique call for each of us. In this session, Jim will share his journey of transformation and how he discovered God’s call to a life of significance.
Often, leaders need help fighting for others - or their own - freedom from pornography. Join Justin as he shares three areas of focus to find lasting freedom: Identity: learning who we are in Christ; Accountability: being honest and transparent; and Sincerity: having true repentance.
The Bible has abundant insight into handling money and debt, giving, and investing, as relevant today as it has been in centuries past. In this session, Keith will offer guidance on how to manage the wealth God has entrusted to you and provide resources to continue your faith-based financial journey for years to come.
The world is literally coming to our front door as refugees and immigrants from across the world are coming to Wisconsin to find help and hope. How do we effectively both reach out to these people and also our Wisconsin neighbors? Come and hear helpful insights and key principles in tried and true ways to effectively reach our neighbors, across cultures and across the street!
Discover the power of communion and the Lord’s Table at this seminar. Jesus desires to be in close relationship with us, so He prepares a table of forgiveness, healing and restoration. At the table, Jesus turns our darkest moments into happy endings because of His grace.
How do you come alongside a person who is far from God and help them become a mature follower of Jesus? Coming alongside them is more helpful than throwing more discipleship programs at them. Gary has developed a proven spiritual formation process that has turned many spiritual investigators into spiritual contributors. Learn how to have spiritual conversations that lead to spiritual maturity.
So many of us have a sense of urgency in passing the faith on to the next generation. Historically, Young Adults have always been one of the most difficult groups to reach for the Lord. Our session will focus not only on mistakes we commonly make but will also give us concrete steps that we can all take to help spiritually form the Young Adults in our lives.
Between working 50+ hours per week, attending kids activities, coaching teams, household chores and serving at church, where is the time to be a “Soul Mate”? In this seminar Steve & Colleen will draw upon nearly 40 years of marriage to share principles on how your marriage can grow and deepen through the years.
Day-to-day life presents many demands on our time, energy, emotions, and resources. We are finite and the demands can seem endless. When we experience being overwhelmed, stressed-out we often live poorly and use unhealthy and ungodly coping strategies with many negative consequences. We will explore how we can live congruent with how God has designed us and cope effectively with the stresses we encounter.
Whether you are a believer or not, adversity will always lurk in the shadows and nobody is immune from it. However, the adversity you experience will never cancel out the mission God has called you to. Fact of the matter is, mission and adversity travel together, and this session is designed to better help you navigate those travels.
Most men at the end of their life want to know that they made a difference. Call it a sense of purpose or significance but none of us want to get to the end of our lives and realize that we have wasted the one life we were given to live. We want to know that we impacted lives, people, humanity or eternity. The question is: “how?” How do we do that well? Come hear some principles and stories about how not to waste your life.
Anything we want to grow in our lives, whether it’s a business, a relationship, a garden, or our finances depends on the principles of sowing and reaping. Learn how to grow as a follower of Jesus by observing the same principles. The secret to growing in Christ is all about being receptive to the seed of His word, no matter what kind of hand life is dealing us. Even if you’ve gotten off track, growth is still possible!
There are so many voices telling us where our value lies: our talents, our bank account, our career, our accomplishments, even our toys. However, there is more to YOU than all that stuff. There is fulfillment and security beyond that stuff, because YOU ARE NOT
Your work, leisure and relationships, do not have to compete. In this session Rod will empower you to find balance in your work, family, and relationship life.
Show me your habits and I’ll show you your future. Destiny is not a mystery. Destiny is daily habits. The good news? You are one habit away from a totally different life!
WHY ARE WE HERE? WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO, & HOW DO WE DO IT? The answer to these questions helps us manage the stress and weight of responsibilities we try to juggle in our lives. Chris will show us what it means to pursue the purposes God has for us and release us to walk in freedom.
As men we tend to lean into things that we are good at, or enjoy. Unfortunately for many, parenting is not on either of those lists. Today’s session will bring encouragement and empowerment that you are made for this role.
Money, sex, power and addictions. It’s easy to get derailed as you follow Christ. How do you avoid the temptations men face? Albert will discuss how, in Christ, we overcome the temptations that cause men to stumble.
Albert will close the conference with the strong command that the Apostle Paul gave Timothy in 1 Timothy 6:11, “But you, man of God, FLEE FROM ALL THIS, & PURSUE RIGHTEOUSNESS, GODLINESS, FAITH, LOVE, ENDURANCE & GENTLENESS.”
Show me your habits and I’ll show you your future. Destiny is not a mystery. Destiny is daily habits. The good news? You are one habit away from a totally different life!
What does a godly marriage look like? What do we do if our marriage doesn’t look that way? Why can marriage be so challenging? How do we pursue a Biblical vision for our marriage in every season of life? Join Steve as he explores this challenging topic and brings practical application for men to pursue godly marriages.
Jesus Christ is the most historically significant, culturally impactful, and personally debated figure of all time. Who is this figure? The way we understand the person and work of Christ strongly influences why we place our trust in Him. So why should you devote your life to Him? Join Steve as he unpacks this important topic and challenges you to answer these questions for yourself
Another day, another dollar? Working for the weekend? Just showing up? Is your work just a daily grind? How do we respond to work that seems unfulfilling, frustrating, and disconnected from our spiritual life? Discover new application of the ancient advice for every working man: "whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.
Brotherhood is one of man's basic needs. Yet today, most men do life without friends. But God is not looking for his men to have friendships. He calls us into a brotherhood. In this session, we will discover why brotherhood is essential in our faith and how to build it into our lives and into the culture of our church.

Few temptations are more pervasive and destructive to men than pornography. Freedom is possible but we must fight for victory from the victory Jesus died to secure. Let’s take an honest look at ourselves in light of this sin and find hope to kill it by the finished work of Christ our King.
It is no small thing for a person to bow down and bend before the living God. When we pray, we come into His presence; we encounter Him. He is the One on the other side of our prayers. Pursuing a life of prayer takes understanding and action.
It’s been a hard year(s) for many marriages. We tried telling ourselves our marriage was fine (when we were not), then we tried to hide it when we were not fine (fix it on our own), but maybe now is the time to talk about not being fine and face some long-term disappointments in marriage - together. First, we’ll get into what the gospel communicates to our marriage like nothing else can - forgiveness, grace, second chances, and hope all have their best power in the gospel of Jesus. Second, we’ll make big choices based on Jesus’ teaching that the two are already one, and therefore set the boundaries that keep us one.
When we were young we all had dreams of what we wanted to be when we grew up. But how many of us saw those dreams become a reality? For many men, work is a duty and obligation. For others, it sucks the life out of them. In this session will look at God’s design for work and what it takes to find meaning and fulfillment in it.
Today’s “Influencers” use their presence and platform to influence others. While the term is a current buzzword, the concept is not new. You are influencing the teens in your life. Period. The real questions are: how are you influencing them, who are you pointing them to and what might we glean from the most influential influencer of all time?
God desires for men to raise up as Ambassadors of Reconciliation, in today’s ever-increasingly diverse, yet deeply divided mission field. Explore 2 Corinthians 5:14-6:1 with Efrem and see the opportunity to deeply discover the call on Christ followers to carry this message and live out the ministry of reconciliation in a broken world.
Want a marriage that’s built to last? One that’s maturing and rooted in God’s transformative and empowering love found in Christ? Efrem takes you through 1 John 4 where you will see the overflow of intimacy with God, your identity in Christ and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit are the key to building that kind of marriage. Explore how this is applied to the areas of communication, conflict/resolution and servanthood within marriage.
Tragedy struck Davey and his son, Weston, in an unimaginable way when Davey lost his pregnant wife of seven years, Amanda, during a home invasion. Amanda was shot three times in their home on November 10th, 2015, passing away in the hospital just 24 hours later. After navigating this sudden loss and profound grief, Davey began helping others navigate their unique valleys and turning their pain into purpose.
What does it mean to be a man? Identity, masculinity, and manhood can be challenging topics in today’s culture. Where do we find direction in such a time as this? How can men learn to press on and live like Jesus in spite of challenges? Afshin will bring Biblical wisdom to the difficult topic of men’s Identity.
As men we are swimming in an ocean of temptations-sexual enticements and worldly wealth, false praise and fake worship, character tests and integrity trials. The temptations surround us every day. So how do we keep our way pure? Join Derwin as he explores the Biblical response to the temptations that all men face.
Lone wolf. Renegade. As men we tend to armor up against the world ready to go it alone. But isolation is a liability and strong friendship one of the greatest catalysts to accomplishing the life mission God has called you to. In Scripture, Paul and Barnabas had a strong, purposeful, and imperfect friendship that shows a few ways we can build and protect the kind of friendships that bolster our lives.
The acronym BLESS represents five everyday ways to love your neighbor and change the world. Dave will share how to be an effective witness for Christ and how to love people where they are. You will be motivated and inspired to make a difference with five simple ways to bless others with the love of Christ.
So many people in our world talk about being “influencers”. Could this idea of influence be the new evangelism? Mike will lead you to dive in and think about what it means to have Gospel influence.

La casa mía es un desastre. Tengo cuatro niños con edades de 8 años para abajo. Más que esto, estoy trabajando en ministerios, tratando a liderar personas, y todo esto con durante una pandemia. A veces nos sentimos agotados. Mi imagino que usted también. Si la prioridad más importante es la familia, ¿Cómo seguimos avanzando con todos nuestros roles?
My house is a mess. I have four children ages 8 and under. More than this, I am working in ministries, trying to lead people, and all this during a pandemic. Sometimes we feel exhausted. I imagine you too. If the most important priority is family, how do we press on with all of our roles?

The reality is that most of us will face a work transition at some point in our careers. With God's help, we can prepare ourselves to not only handle it well but to thrive through the uncertainty that it brings. This session will provide some practical wisdom and experiences that will help each of us!
“I’m Always Angry” -Bruce Banner in the Avengers Movies. Why is anger so often our initial reaction to relationship tension, work stress, financial challenges and the world we live in? Is there something under the anger, under the waterline of our life that is driving our anger? How can I understand what is really going on and become a man who responds in an appropriate and godly manner? Jason will explore both the root of our anger and God’s plan to discover peace and self-control.
We often think that forgiveness is something we offer for the sake of others. But Scripture teaches us that extending forgiveness is also for our own benefit. In this session we’ll look at how true freedom is found only when we forgive.
In some ways each of us is a product of our past, but we don't have to be a prisoner to it. In this session Steve will examine the most common wounds of men and how God can bring healing to our lives.
We tend to define spiritual growth and maturity through the lens of passion, knowledge, and self-discipline. But isn’t that what the Pharisees excelled at? As we’ll see, the Bible actually paints a different picture of growth and maturity, laying out a path that has been too often ignored or simply forgotten.
Behavior management is exhausting. Don’t cuss, don’t lose your temper, don’t look at porn. Is this really the good news Jesus was inviting his disciples into? What if there was more to your Christian faith than behavior management? What if Jesus has a bigger adventure for you? Join best-selling author, Jerrad Lopes as encourages men to step into the true adventure their souls are longing for.
If you’re a dad, you’re most likely exhausted. Many dads work hard to provide for their family, and then come home and try to be the best fathers and husbands they can be. But, what if there is a difference between a tired body and a tired soul? Join best-selling author, Jerrad Lopes, as he encourages dads to find rest in Christ alone.
Does your work matter to God? How do you follow Christ in a workplace that seems far from God? Why is the working world so challenging to what you believe? How do you find fulfillment in your work? Afshin will encourage men to press on in their work and glorify God in their workplace.”

I think we would all admit that there are significant differences between men and women. Because there are such specific physical, emotional and sexual differences, the needs each one has are very unique. This seminar will highlight some of those differences and help husbands to tailor their loving specifically to their wife’s unique needs.
Many men know about the call to share their faith and the good news of the Gospel with others. Got that! But maybe we just don’t know what to do or even how to get started. In this practical seminar, we’ll discover from the life of Jesus Christ just what HE did! (What a novel idea!) Having posed this simple question, “How did Jesus do it?” -- we’ll uncover some practical and profound ways that we can start engaging people and winning them over to faith in Christ. Doing it His way!

The power of Sabbath rest. We will talk about what it means to work from rest and not just rest from work.
Great leadership is defined by how it multiplies itself. This is easier said than done. This workshop focuses on how to make multiplication the culture of your church/organization. We will explore the lessons Elmbrook is learning as we seek to discover the greatest predictors to growth by multiplication more than addition. We will also explore some barriers to a multiplication culture that we need to navigate. This is a very practical workshop you will want to attend with your team.
Sex is a need in marriage. So is affection. God’s heart for marriage is to bring both together in a meaningful and intimate way. Come learn practical ways to put this practice in your marriage.
Men might spend two hours of their week at the church building or in a small group. This kind of worship is biblical and a vital rhythm in the life of a Christian. But during the other 166 hours of our week, we have just as much potential to worship the God who created us. Our time at church and small group should launch us out into the world—which includes the marketplace—prepared to take the hope of Jesus with us.
When you placed your faith in Christ, you essentially enlisted in God’s army as a soldier of Christ (2 Timothy 2:3). There are some important steps you can take to prepare yourself for the lifelong process of growing as a disciple of Jesus. Come learn some very practical ways to be equipped for battle and to start strong in your faith. If you disciple men, this will give you more ways to strengthen young believers.
Some say the church in America is in decline, and non-Christian immigrants will be our demise. Others suggest the hope of the Church is actually in the hands of new-comers. Some call for tighter border controls; others want to just co-exist. But what does Jesus say? And what can we do as believers?”
Jesus was continuously in fellowship with God the Father by the Holy Spirit and lived that way. Jesus ascended to the Father so that the Holy Spirit would not only be in His followers, but that those followers would live by listening to the Holy Spirit. Explore that way of life in practical ways with us in this seminar.
As head of a family, men need to be proactive to their own as well as their family’s health concerns and needs. This talk will cover health issues for men and families from ages thirteen to ninety.
If we spend the majority of our waking days at our workplaces, what does it look like for us to integrate our faith and our work? Join in the journey of letting your work become worship as we explore our work in light of God’s purpose for the world and for humanity. As Paul wrote, ‘Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord’ (Colossians 3:23).”
One of our greatest needs as Christians is to know we are doing what God wants. We want to hear what God has to say when we are in the middle of a big decision or a crisis. Explore how we can know both the will of God and feel his comfort when it seems like we hear nothing but silence.
Finishing the race has a lot to do with training, hydration, pacing and perseverance. However, the key ingredient for finishing strong actually has more to do with the eyes. How does a man finish strong?
In our pluralistic society, it’s becoming increasingly hard to share our faith with a loved one, friend, neighbor or coworker. How do we overcome the stance of “This Jesus thing works for you, but it’s not for me!” How do we stop people from shutting down the exclusive claims of Christ? Let’s experience how to share your faith in a highly relational culture while still expressing God’s truth to multiple generations. Come ready to be equipped to speak into generational mindsets with God’s truth.
“Discover key ideas that help men grow up and step into the manhood they were created to live—a life of truth, passion and purpose.”
The growing “sandwich generation” has to parent their kids while parenting their parents. What do we do when Grandpa and Grandma can’t take care of themselves anymore? How do we navigate the emotional, financial, and spiritual changes that take place with aging parents?
Many people have an abundance of faith related questions. The “Fire Away” seminar is a good opportunity to both listen to the questions of others or to ask your own.
Pastor and author, Chuck Swindoll has observed, “Our generation toys dangerously with an I’m-getting-tired-so-let’s-just-quit-mentality.” Yet, Jesus came to give us a full, abundant life…to the very end. This seminar will offer a few tips on finishing our life’s journey well.
As Christians, We’re called to bring freedom to the oppressed and to defend the cause of the poor. This interactive workshop will inspire and equip leaders to help men to find and engage in transformative global relationships.

The Church is a multi-ethnic family. The gospel of reconciliation transcends preferences, background and skin color. Through this seminar you will discover practical ways to live out the gospel of reconciliation.
Sex is a result of intimacy. Sex provides intimacy. But sex within marriage is also a metaphor for intimacy - a reflection of the unity that exists within God himself: The Father, Son and Spirit. Emotional, sexual, and spiritual intimacy are the gifts and the intention of a Godly marriage, but how do we get there? In this seminar, we will look at the pitfalls of passivity, dominance and resentment that hinder the path toward biblical unity as God intended it and the call of husbands in the face of those pitfalls.
Children don’t come with an instruction manual; especially those with special needs & unique challenges. You may be a (new) parent, grandparent, uncle, friend, employer, or ‘neighbor’. Feelings of anger, denial, shame, judgement or sympathy do occur; but they don’t help the child, family, or community. Mercy, understanding, fellowship, empathy, patience & adaptation can. Christ, Nehemiah, and James (and others) provide perspective & insight on how to navigate and grow in this ‘Transformational Opportunity’ that the Lord has blessed you with. We will also discuss the practical application and the very real/new roles, fellowship opportunities, responsibilities and expectations of men.
Many parents breathe a sigh of relief once they get through the challenging teenage years with their children. Though the day-to-day parenting responsibilities diminish greatly, maintaining a positive relationship with adult children provides new challenges. Are you a friend? An advisor? A distant memory? Learn strategies for nurturing and growing these relationships in a healthy way.
Most of us spend a ton of time thinking all sorts of things about money. In this seminar we’ll take a close look at what’s most commonly on our minds and attempt to define true financial health.
There is no greater journey than the invitation we have to walk with Jesus! John wrote of this journey by saying, “Whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.” (1 John 2:6) Embarking on any journey requires preparation, and for those seeking to walk as Jesus walked it is no different. Learn how to start your journey with Jesus on the right foot.
The question is how do you face them and can you do it biblically? Join us as we take a look.
My work says, “faster.” My church says, “Slow down.” I’m trying to ignore my smartphone as my wife asks me to be “present.” Another password? Seriously? Am I a racist? Can I trust the news? Nothing seems predictable any more. Sometimes I sleep through the night. Jesus says he’s enough, but I’m not sure the rest of the world agrees with him. Yes, honey, I’m still listening. We’ll speak honestly about the gap between the promise of Sabbath rest and the instincts of keeping up. Together we’ll explore a steady boat in a stormy sea.
All of us have parts of our lives we wish were different. But embracing our prickly parts--our faults & failures, weaknesses & regrets--is absolutely essential to our spiritual growth. In this seminar Mac talks about how having a child with special needs not only exposed his weaknesses, but paved the way for necessary spiritual growth.
Being a teenager is hard- but being the PARENT of a teenager may even be harder. Learn what you can do to engage, encourage, and prepare the next generation for adulthood.
The first five years of marriage can be crazy, challenging and exciting: all in the same week! With some effort and wisdom, they can also be the best ever. Lynn and I will draw from our 21 years of marriage while providing practical tools that you can use to make your first five years the best that they can be.
Conflict is normal and inevitable in all relationships. Marriages are definitely not immune. In this seminar, we will explore the patterns and habits that will help us deal with conflict in our marriages in healthy, God-honoring ways.
Families face many challenges in today’s world. Our kids are watching repurposed television shows with uncensored advertisements, while playing endless computer games and surfing the web on every topic imaginable. If it is not hours on facebook, it is the temptation to give your toddler your ‘smart’ phone for a few minutes of quite! There is no getting around it, our world is different and with it comes a whole new set of challenges, including how to parent in the digital age. This seminar will provide some practical tools for navigating the “new normal” as a family.
Our world is in desperate need of young men to be Biblical leaders! We will discuss why it’s so crucial for Christian guys to step up and lead. We will also talk about the differences between a “worldly leader” and a “godly leader” and see how we are ALL created to lead!
Getting men in groups is a little like herding cats. We are fiercely independent, somewhat private, and don’t like to feel vulnerable. So how can we help men get past those barriers and experience the best God has for them? In this workshop we’ll explore best practices for helping men experience healthy, life-changing small groups.

We all encounter losses, betrayals, or other forms of wounding in this fallen world.

Learn practical tips on starting the conversation, transitioning into spiritual things, and clearly and simply presenting the Gospel.
