The Threshold: A Sacred Space to Draw Near to God
Life moves quickly, and many of the sacred moments when God draws near are easily overlooked. Scripture reminds us, “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.” It is in the simple moments of stillness and attentiveness that we begin to notice that God is already present and gently inviting us closer. In this workshop, we will practice recognizing the quiet threshold moments within our day — moments that invite us to pause and draw near to God. Together we will practice entering a sacred space of silence, reflection, and attentiveness to the Holy Spirit where God is waiting for us.

Seasons with my Savior
Just as nature moves through fall, winter, spring, and summer, our spiritual lives move through seasons, as well. Some seasons feel full of growth and clarity, while others feel quiet, uncertain, or even dormant. Each one has a purpose in God’s plan. In this workshop, we’ll explore the releasing of fall, the hidden work of winter, the renewal of spring, and the abundance of summer. You’ll learn how to recognize the season you’re in, how God may be working within it, and practical steps to navigate each stage with faith. Discover the beauty and growth that come when we trust God in every season and deepen our relationship with Him along the journey. Because with God, no season is wasted— each one is shaping us for greater transformation.

Overflow: Stories of the Goodness of God

No matter where you find yourself today, join us as we recognize and give God glory for caring about every detail of our lives.

Jackie Schanlaber
Faith and Fitness: Stretching Our Faith
Join us as we come before God for this unique time of worship! We will combine a relaxing full body stretch with deep breathing and reciting scripture together. (Participants will have the choice of lying on the floor or sitting in chairs for the stretching.)

Judy Wilson
Bringing Our Neighbors to the Well
Do you long to share Jesus with your neighbors but struggle to find ways to do that? Come and hear how simple gatherings and acts of kindness can build relationships and open the door to God conversations. We’ll share ideas for how to bring neighbors together, stories of God at work, and pray for God to use us where we live to draw people into relationship with Him.

Kate Miller
Running the Race Marked Out for You
In the Bible, our faith walk with Jesus is likened to a race that our heavenly Father has planned for each of us since the beginning of time. Based on Hebrews 12:1-3, this workshop will explore the components of the race itself: what it is, how to prepare for it, how to sustain it, what we learn from it, and most importantly, who we’re running it for. We’ll also encourage one another as we share favorite Bible verses to fuel us along the way.

Marisa Caldeira
Four Steps of Prayer in One Accord
As a prayer group leader for Moms in Prayer International, Marisa will guide us through the four steps of prayer: praise, confession, thanksgiving, and intercession. We’ll then have the opportunity to use this model to pray expectant, victorious prayers on behalf of our children and school campuses locally and around the world.

Nancy Smith
Hope for Weary Women
Based on lessons learned through the storms in her life, Nancy will show us how our difficult circumstances can lead us to God’s word, bring spiritual growth, and give us hope. Out of Nancy’s passion to share God’s word with others, she’ll show us how to apply it to our lives and bring God glory.

Float: Resting in God When It Feels Like You’re Drowning
Sometimes when we’re in a season of busyness, grief, or illness, we can feel as if we are drowning. Connecting with God often becomes the first thing to slip away. In this workshop, we will learn together how to FLOAT with 5 gentle tips that offer simple, grace-filled practices that can help you stay at peace even in the roughest waters. Come discover how to breathe, rest, and reconnect with God—our one true source of peace—right in the middle of the storm.

Sue Key
Praise God? In This?
Are you struggling to praise God in your current circumstances? In this workshop we’ll discuss such questions as: How can I praise God when I’m not feeling it? What exactly is praise? How does it differ from thanksgiving? Why are we told to praise God? We’ll also discover how a magnifying glass can help us understand the answer to these questions.

Anne Alix and Sharon Gamble
The Selah Hour Workshop
Do you want a quiet hour in the peace of the church’s sanctuary? Step away from the wonderful noise and laughter of the conference for this workshop to … be still. Sharon will give you a framework for the hour, but feel free to either follow that guide or simply open your Bible, read, pray, even sleep for a bit. Seats will be marked to ensure space between participants. This is time for “just you and God” to enjoy.
