As you are probably aware the Faith@Home movement is an international movement that God is leading through the church to reestablish the home as the primary place where faith is lived, expressed and nurtured.  This movement is spreading across Canada, the US as well as Germany, Norway, Switzerland, Sweden and the Netherlands as thousands of church leaders are examining how they can lead their ministry in a more faith@home focused manner.  Since this is a new, ever evolving and fast growing movement many church leaders today are seeking ways to connect and learn from one another.  That’s why we are offering online, Faith@Home coaching networks.  Through these networks church leaders from across the world will have an opportunity to participate in a webcast to gain fresh insights and learn from other like minded leaders who are working to make their ministry more Faith@Home focused.  In addition to this we also wanted to create a place where you can learn from some leading practitioners who have developed successful approaches that we run across in our travels for the Faith@Home movement.

The final reason why we are offering online coaching is to help you keep the momentum going after you have heard a message or attended a conference that has positively challenged you to be a more faith@home focused leader/church.  Becoming a faith@home focused church is going to take time and we wanted to be there, through coaching, to help you build a strong and lasting faith@home strategy into your church ministry structure.  Through online coaching you will now have an opportunity to get fresh, new faith@home insights and support each month without having to leave your office or home!

As you know, Satan has been at work for many generations to slowly and methodically take Christ and Christ-like living out of the home. The Faith@Home methodology is God’s response yet it is not a quick fix thing and as your missionary I want to be able to continue to provide support and encouragement to you as you wrestle with how to become more Faith@Home focused.

One of the things that God has opened a door for me to be able to provide is monthly online coaching for Sr. pastors, children’s ministry leaders and youth ministry leaders. Beginning this fall, at a monthly time yet to be determined, Sr. Pastors, children’s ministry leaders and youth leaders will be able to tune in to live, interactive, online coaching sessions targeting Faith@Home issues and topics unique to each of these ministry areas. These coaching sessions will be one hour in length and will include a “guest practitioner” who will also speak into the topic. Essentially here is how the coaching sessions will work:

• First 15-20 minutes – I will introduce the topic/issue and provide my insights on this topic and why it is one of the key issues we need to address.
• Next 15-20 minutes – I will introduce you as the “guest practitioner” who will provide your insights/ideas on the topic.
• Final 15-20 minutes – I will lead a Q&A time where you can ask questions relating to the topic or anything else you have need of.

The Family of Faith Network Conference is designed for church leaders, specifically ministers and lay leaders who are responsible for strengthening families and reaching out to the family through the local church. Individuals and couples wanting to strengthen faith development in their families are also encouraged to attend.
Desiring to strengthen family ministry in the church, Pepperdine University’s Boone Center for the Family hosts the second annual Family of Faith Network Conference. The theme of this year’s conference is spiritual development and faith formation in the family. The Boone Center for the Family has carefully selected each speaker based on their reputation and commitment to excellence in their field.
The workshops and keynotes will enhance your ability and commitment to developing spiritually vibrant families. The conference enables you to identify areas of strength and growth in your family and in your ministry, as well as learn new techniques, philosophies, disciplines, and rituals designed to set families on the path to authentic faith and sacred households.
Pepperdine provides an ideal setting to rest, renew, and refocus while developing new networks for ministry and exchange. You will have the opportunity to network and fellowship with leaders in the growing field of family and faith development. We look forward to your participation as we draw near to the heart of God and seek His solutions for the challenges of our time.
