Building church by speaking words that Build

How can we be speaking God's powerful word to others so that they will grow in maturity? The key is encouragement. But how do we encourage one another? This workshop will help you grow as a friend, growth group member, and congregation member. Case studies on speaking words to those in the grip of suffering, and when a rebuke or challenge is needed.

Presenter: Terry Bowers

Recommended for: Anyone who senses that conversations after church could be about more than work, health and sport.
