Seminars have been delivered in a variety of formats and with different event agendas.
The timing of key principles and messages can be tailored to what ever your event
requires. Typically, there are three sessions:
- God Prepares Us - 60 minutes
- God Shapes Us - 60 minutes
- God Finishes Us to Serve Him According to His Purpose - 30 minutes
However, these sessions can be collapsed into two or even one session. Since there
are several scriptures, visual points, principles and lessons to share, the greatest
benefits are delivered in the typical three session format.
A three session format can be delivered over a weekend retreat or conference setting, or
in a single day or morning.

Ice Breaker Ideas
1. Pass a bag of M&Ms allowing each person to take a small handful. After the bag
goes around, have each person tell one thing about themselves for every M&M taken.
Can be done in small groups.
2. Have each person bring their favorite piece of pottery to explain why within a group
setting
3. Have each person bring a cup and saucer. On a long table, place each on a piece of
paper identified with a unique number. Allow the attendees to guess to whom each cup
and saucer set belongs.
