Spiritual Conversations Workshop Taster
2024-07-16 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | https://learninghub.gocommunitas.org/event/spiritual-conversations-workshop-taster/
How many times have you been frustrated by your efforts to share the gospel? It doesn’t have to be this way!
The good news is you can have spiritual conversations that are not only meaningful but also engaging and transformative for both of you. When we engage people the way Jesus did, we can’t help but reflect His love. When this happens, the Spirit of God will begin touching the longings of the hearts of those around you as you create space for Him to work and speak through you.
The Spiritual Conversations Workshop Taster will show you the core concepts of its 5 week big brother course, Spiritual Conversations. You will learn how to ask relevant questions that stir a person’s heart, and how to avoid many of the mistakes Christians make when talking about God and their relationship with Him.

This is an online 1 hour interactive workshop where you will be introduced to the core concepts of whole person connection:

Noticing – opening our eyes to what’s really going on
Serving – the importance of taking the initiative to communicate God’s love
Listening – the practice of saying less to say more
Wondering – learning to engage our curiosity and explore
Sharing – the time and place for God’s story

We can’t wait to see you at the next training!

Simple Discipleship Workshop Taster
2024-07-02 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | https://learninghub.gocommunitas.org/event/simple-discipleship-workshop-taster/
What if Discipleship Could Be Simple? What if you could lead not-yet-believers to Jesus using the Bible? What if all you had to do was show up and watch God do His thing? What if you focused on relationship? You can make disciples!
Discovery Bible Studies are being used all over the world to make multiplying disciples of Jesus. A simple and effective tool for leading others to God, a “DBS” will introduce your friends and family to Jesus and allow them to discover Him through His Spirit, regardless of their background.
As you engage with Jesus in mission through discipling others, your faith will grow as you watch the Holy Spirit draw people to Himself, increase their love of scripture, and develop them into mature disciples of God.
People are interested in discovering God with someone they trust. All it takes is an invitation from someone like you! Whether a young believer or atheist, the Discovery Bible Study tool creates the space and safety necessary for a person to begin hearing the Holy Spirit of God through reading His Word and responding to what they hear in a non-judgmental and personal way. As they discover God through obedience to His word, their faith increases and their skepticism and hesitations disappear. This taster of the full course will give you the very basics of simple discipleship.
In this Training Taster you will learn:

The basics of the Discovery Study process
The key questions and phrases that make it stand out
How to facilitate a discovery conversation
How to create ownership around individual action steps gleaned from the study

Some outcomes you can expect after the Taster Workshop:

A simple way to disciple your friends and family
Increased confidence in the Holy Spirit’s role in discipleship
A renewed sense of freedom and excitement to follow Jesus in mission
The support of a spiritual community of like-minded believers

The Simple Discipleship Taster Workshop is a 1 hour appetizer of the 6 session Simple Discipleship Training. It will focus on 1 to 2 key aspects of the study and allow participants to experience those in a 1 hour event.

Emotionally Healthy Relationships
2024-04-04 11:30 - 13:00 (America/New_York) | https://learninghub.gocommunitas.org/event/emotionally-healthy-relationships/
Do you desire a deeper, more intimate relationship with others? Are you triggered by some people but others aren’t? Or maybe inside you feel like a fake or failure? Or you just don’t know how to bring what’s inside out into the open with others in a safe, authentic way.
Pastor Peter Scazzero found himself in a mess of self-doubt and uncontrolled emotions, and his life was falling apart. He and his wife were drifting apart, his church split when the associate pastor took a couple of hundred people to start a new church – and didn’t mention it to Pete! All this led Peter & his wife Jerri into deep introspection and challenging growth.He came to realize that “It’s not possible to be spiritually mature while remaining emotionally immature.” This is the premise of the 2-part Spiritually Healthy Discipleship program: Emotionally Healthy Spirituality and Emotionally Healthy Relationships.
Practically speaking, here’s what that looks like:

Learning a 5-part Framework to transform your conversations
Stopping the sabotage of wrong assumptions
Eliminating confusion by clarifying expectations
Discovering what your family taught you about communication and conflict
Getting beneath the surface of your emotional life
Deepening connection through “incarnational listening”
Learning to untangle your complex emotions and speak clearly
Discovering the art of clean fighting
Designing a lifelong plan to grow in love for others

I had the joy and privilege of going thru the first EHS and EHR courses which Daphne and Marty Uhler facilitated almost 4 years ago. It was such a transformative experience that my team was inspired to begin offering these same courses to our network of Christ-followers here in the Benelux. We have since had the privilege of helping to facilitate 4 more of these EHS/EHR courses. And each time we have done so we have discovered deeper layers of self-awareness, healing and perspective resulting in a more mature faith firmly rooted in the goodness and faithfulness of God. Whatever season of life you find yourself in, I wholeheartedly recommend these two 8-week discipleship courses.

Church of Two (Co2)
2024-03-19 11:00 - 12:30 (America/Los_Angeles) | https://learninghub.gocommunitas.org/event/church-of-two-co2/
Cross-cultural servanthood is hard! The Purpose of the Co2 is to help Christians experience connection on a heart level with themselves, with others and with God in order to build resiliency. Relational joy, emotional intelligence, and an increased awareness of God’s presence increases our resilience and perseverance. We do this through learning relational connectedness practices, or “Rhythm’s of Attention,” that become reflexive and automatic, building a foundation of deep connectedness for when the going gets tough!
You will learn a new Spiritual discipline, how to recover from overwhelm more quickly, how to look for Joy in life, how to become more aware of your “heart level” feelings, how to practice listening prayer, and how to better discern God’s voice.
Co2 is a 6-week, facilitated course created by the LK10 organization that confirms the Bible with neuroscience to introduce people to the basics of connecting heart to heart with each other and with God daily. We are privileged to offer this course and thankful to LK10 for sharing it with us!
In this course you will learn a beautiful process for accountability as it should be. Consequently, it is HIGHLY recommended that you take this course with a prayer partner, spouse, or someone you feel comfortable being vulnerable with, as well as someone you can continue to meet with after the course is finished.
This course includes 6 – 1.5 hour Zoom sessions with home work practices over a period of 6 weeks.

Session 0: Intro – Overview of the course and the learning process.
Session 1: A Track to Run On – Introduction to the “Co2” – Church of 2.
Session 2: Listening and Sharing On the Heart Level – The “Check In” practice.
Session 3: Daily Conversational Intimacy With Jesus – SIFT
Session 4: Spreading the Joy – Luke 10:2b prayer
Session 5: Where Do We Go From Here?

One element I enjoyed in the CO2 cohort was its focus on “Checking In”. Many of us in Communitas have become familiar with this practice at the start of a meeting or in a group. CO2 is where the practice originated. I appreciated the background info as well as how this practice was woven into each CO2 meeting. However, the CO2 cohort takes “Checking In” a step further by offering 5 options for responses to the person who is “Checking In”. I think our group would say that these 5 options were game changers in learning how to better come alongside someone so they feel heard and understood.
