The next Regional Workshop will be held at the Embassy Suites in Grapevine, Texas Febuary 8-10, 2012.

     CSN has recently launched a unique and comprehensive two-day stewardship workshop specifically designed for church leaders.  An increasing number of churches are realizing the vital importance of a healthy, vibrant stewardship ministry and are looking for practical guidance in starting or strengthening their ministries.
     The workshop seeks to equip church leaders in effectively addressing the Practical, Spiritual and Emotional aspects of money and possessions in the context of their unique church cultures.
     The workshop will be taught by veteran Stewardship Pastors Chris Goulard and Dave Briggs.  Chris serves as the Stewardship Pastor at Saddleback Church.  Dave is currently the Director of the Stewardship Ministry at Central Christian Church of Arizona and prior to that at Willow Creek.

Key topics to be addressed include:

   • Developing a Vision for a Comprehensive Stewardship Ministry … by engaging your congregation in embracing the benefits of a thriving stewardship ministry in your church
   • Inspiring Spiritual Transformation through Stewardship … by leading your people in a biblically based understanding of the life change associated with living as a true steward of God’s resources
   • Instilling a Culture of Generosity … by  laying the foundation for growing a spirit of generosity within your people
   • How to Start a Stewardship Ministry … by following practical steps for building a healthy and sustainable ongoing ministry
   • Structuring Your Stewardship Ministry … by implementing a leadership structure and an organization of healthy teams
   • Effectively Launching Your Stewardship Ministry … by recruiting, training and empowering passionate, capable volunteers
