Just Start: Simple Steps to Leading Faith at Home

Description:

You don’t need a church background or all the answers to begin. “Just Start” is a welcoming, judgment-free workshop designed for people who want to grow in their relationship with God and begin leading their families in faith—without feeling overwhelmed or unqualified.

Whether you didn’t grow up in church or you’re simply unsure where to start, you’re not alone. This workshop focuses on real-life, doable ways to live out your faith at home. You’ll gain simple, practical tools and rhythms that feel natural—not intimidating—so you can confidently take your next step.

Who is Jesus…Really?

Description:

In this interactive workshop, we’ll cut through the noise and take a fresh, honest look at who Jesus really is: not based on culture, assumptions, or popular opinion, but on Scripture. Together, we’ll explore the most common misconceptions about Jesus, uncover the truth about His identity and purpose, and wrestle with the question He still asks today: “Who do you say I am?”

Whether you’ve followed Him for years, have questions, or are just curious, this workshop will challenge, clarify, and deepen your understanding of the One who stands at the center of it all.

Come ready to think, engage, and encounter the real Jesus.

Leader: Andy Miles

Time: 5PM & 6PM

Church Debunked

Description:

This workshop is designed to challenge common misconceptions about the church, Christianity, and faith in today’s world. “Church Debunked” creates a safe and honest space to explore tough questions, address skepticism, and unpack cultural narratives that often shape how people view the church.

Participants will engage in open dialogue about topics such as:

• “Why do people distrust the church?”
• “Is faith still relevant in modern society?”
• “What does authentic Christianity actually look like?”
• “How do we respond to criticism, doubt, and deconstruction?”

Through teaching, discussion, and real-life examples, this training equips individuals and church leaders to:

• Understand and respond to common objections to faith
• Communicate truth with clarity, humility, and empathy
• Rebuild trust with those who feel disconnected from church
• Present a more accurate, compelling picture of Jesus and the church

Whether you’re a leader, volunteer, or someone wrestling with your own questions, “Church Debunked” offers practical tools to navigate faith conversations with confidence and compassion.

Leader: Patsy Sassano

Time: 6PM

Faith in Real Life: Living in a World that Doesn’t Care

Description:

This workshop offers an opportunity to explore what it truly looks like to live as a believer. We will discuss the challenges we face and offer practical ways to be confident, consistent, and authentic without losing who we are.
