When things in our life go against us, in the midst of dysfunctions, betrayals, temptations or situations beyond our control, it becomes hard to see God at work. But behind what we see, God remains at work for his glory and our good. Come join us as we look ‘behind the seen’ of the story of Joseph and discover that it’s what you can’t see that makes all the difference.

"Sam Chen helps all of us to not be "that guy" so we can point people to the person of Jesus. Sam has taken a heavy topic and made it into a breezy read that will inform, amuse and inspire." - Abdu Murray
Most Christians know they should be trying to tell their friends and family about Jesus. But in a post-Christendom world, personal evangelism is viewed negatively--it's offensive, inappropriate, and insensitive. Recent studies confirm that the majority of Christians rarely evangelise, worried they might offend their family or lose their friends. In How to Talk About Jesus (Without Being That Guy), author Sam Chan equips everyday Christians who are reluctant and nervous to tell their friends about Jesus with practical, tested ways of sharing their faith in the least awkward ways possible.
Drawing from over two decades of experience as an evangelist, teacher, and pastor, Chan explains why personal evangelism feels so awkward today. And utilising recent insights from communication theory, cross-cultural ministry, and apologetics, he helps you build confidence in sharing your faith, and teaches you how to evangelise your friends and family in socially appropriate ways.

This intensive will help you to develop a better understanding of joining the Spirit in walking with someone on their journey to faith, as well as beginning to shape an effective approach to mission in your congregation and context.

The cost for the course is $175 for the first person, and $50 for each additional person attending from the same congregation or team of people exploring mission opportunities. When you gather together in one place to participate, you can use discussion times to work together to discern your next steps.

Join us for the next walk!
Sunday 10 August, the Callicoma Loop in Cherrybrook.
It's about 5.5km, starting and ending at the Cherrybrook Village shopping centre on Shepherds Drive, and 2hrs will leave plenty of time for Nich to take lots of photos :-) There are a couple of reasonably steep rocky sections (up and down), so make sure you have sturdy boots, and bring your trekking poles if you have them.
Bronwyn and John will head to the shopping centre for lunch at about noon if you'd like to join them, otherwise meet at 1pm in the park across the road. Hope you can make it.
Chat to John Klingberg for more information or email him at [email protected]

When: 9.45am, Tuesday 8 July (6 weeks until 12 August).

The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
