Spiritual Life SeminarsHere are just some of our seminars on spiritual and whole person topics
The people who have been most successful and most satisfied in life have one thing in common. They live out their personal myth. Learn how understand, own and celebrate your personal mythology as a way to maximize your potential as a person in any area of life. Discover the power that comes from seeing your self inside your life story as you experience the chapters of your life. See how a positive personal mythology enables you to handle success and failures in a constructive way. Grow through seeing how your story relates to the needs of those around you. You'll never see yourself in the same way after this seminar. Grant Fairley
Life is a journey with many dangers and opportunities. How do you repair the damage to your spirit that everyone experiences along the way? In an age where many are depressed and discouraged, how does the spiritual dimension of life liberate you to hope again? How can you experience joy in your life? This seminar will help you reconnect to that free and liberated spiritual child in all of us. Grant Fairley
So many parts of our childhood were magical – they allowed us to explore our world, be creative, take chances and dream big dreams. Most successful people never lost – or found again – the enchantment of being human. Find out how to chip away at the layers of discouragement, disappointment and cynicism that keeps you from enjoying a childlike view of the world with all its wonder and possibilities. Learn how to be free to find meaning and purpose in your life!

In the workplace as in life, people are hurt and wronged. Conflicts simmer and lists of grievances accumulate. Forgiveness is the key to unlocking relationships in conflict. Learn how to forgive and forget. Reduce the negative energy buzzing through your company that saps your corporate strength. Grant Fairley
Christian Education ministries were often seen as a function of the typical Sunday School - targeted to children with felt boards and puppets. The best of Christian Education principles and practice - in the tradition of Mary & Lois LeBar, Larry Richards, Donald Joy, Ted Ward, Rod McKean, Howard Newsom, Jim McCue and others - has a whole person curriculum. It is not enough to deal only with the theological teachings but to also use and include insights from education, psychology that leads to the growth and development of whole person. In addition to Christian Education - this is sometimes call Christian Formation, Christian Growth & Discipleship or Christian Ministries. Churches that are missing the benefit of someone who brings this perspective to church life will have a gap between programs and the kind of Christian nurture that is needed in the life of each Christian. Learn about this approach to C.E. - rooted in the evangelical tradition yet often neglected in evangelical churches. Grant Fairley
Exploring the meaning of life for busy executives who face the pressures and challenges of balancing work and the rest of their life. Increasing effectiveness by feeding the spiritual side of life. Empowering yourself to be effective. Dr. D. Overholt
TDC (Top Dead Center) was the centering mark on an aircraft engine during WW2. If it was out of position, the engine would vibrate and ultimately damage the plane and risk everyone aboard. TDC today is associated with the maximum height of a piston firing for best performance. This seminar looks at what we need to do to keep our life TDC. What are the distractions and risks that can jeopardize our effectiveness for God? How can we get ourselves centered and firing to the max to make a difference for our families, work, church and friendships? Grant Fairley
A look at the grieving process with discussions about dying, death and life after death. Resources and practical help to face your own death, mourn the loss of a spouse or loved one and how to help others in the process. Why hope is so important in facing death and facing life. From an evangelical Christian perspective but with application and information for everyone.
The present and future expectations of business life can create a sense of panic for executives and managers. So much is demanded of me - how can I do it all? To prepare for those times when you will feel like you're falling, we help you find the rip-cord and learn how to parachute safely. Important preventative strategies and solutions for those under pressure. Grant Fairley
In a world of mass media and mass communications, how do we connect with individuals one life at a time? Return to the most common way to connect people with the Good News of Christianity by learning the people skills of unconditional regard, the importance of personhood, the value of each life lived and the mystery of God's intersection with some of the most unlikely people as his work is done. Connect your unique story and experiences to the Message that you share. Understand the life to life where in-reach leads to out-reach. Grant Fairley
Many churches today offer "contemporary" worship services when what they really are seeking is an "informal" worship service. Since they use the term "contemporary", they trade away many of the hymns and spiritual songs that would be just fine in an "informal" worship service. They also jettison so many people seeking a more relaxed style of worship that can include contemporary music but does not have to check the whether the song was written in the last five years to qualify. Learn about a new model of Relational Worship that ministers to the whole being in relationship with each other and God. Discover a third way between the traditional evangelical service and the new contemporary services that bridges rather than splits congregations. Grant Fairley
How can you use common life experiences and points of reference within our culture to connect people with the Christian message? How does common literature, movies, music and theater create a bridge between you and someone else as a way to introduce a faith perspective on life? See how "The Lord of The Rings", "Les Misérables", "The Wizard of Oz" and more can get someone thinking about the meaning of faith in their life. Learn about the role of myth and legend in the Christian tradition of outreach and ministry to those in need. Grant Fairley

No matter why you're divorced or where you are on the journey - this seminar will help you grow during the pain and stress of losing a key relationship in your life. How do you handle the needs of your children during a divorce? Where is the hope for life after divorce? Grant Fairley
What is the relationship between our Christian faith and our responsibility to our environment? How does stewardship extend to our physical world? What do we do with the Green Religion sweeping so much of our world? Making environmentally sound choices that are consistent with our faith. Separating the politics from the principles. What does it mean to be a Green Christian? Grant Fairley |
