2/12/2012 12:00:00 AM Leadership Training 1 - On Campus

The purpose of this class is to train and equip our hosts and group members to lead groups in a way that is consistent with God's Word. We require each host to take this initial Leadership Training Class. This is the first class in Saddleback's Leadership Development Pathway.

Learn how to share the leadership load, resolve conflict, empower and equip others, manage your own group website, and many other ways to create and sustain a healthy small group.

All members of the small group are invited to participate. At a minimum the host and the co-host or another member should attend.

This is also a good refresher course if it's been more than a few years since you've last attended this class. As Saddleback grows and changes, so too does our training material.

If you have any questions, please direct them to our class coordinator, John Caputo, johnca@saddleback.com

2/12/2012 12:00:00 AM CLASS 401 - Discovering My Life Mission

God created you with a purpose.� That personal, yet church-wide purpose, means connecting flawed human beings with our perfect and eternal God.

�

Your own story of how God has worked in your life is one of the most effective tools you have for connecting people to God. In CLASS 401, you'll learn to communicate that story to your neighborhood, workplace and around the world.

�

By using your own gifts, personality and story, you'll touch people only you can touch.� Your life experiences can be a bridge to a friend or family member who is seeking Christ.

�

God's global plan includes reaching people from every nation with the good news of Jesus.� In CLASS 401, you'll get a picture of what God is doing throughout the world to bring His people to Himself.� You'll also find out how you can be part of His global plan.

�

Finally, we'll share with you 15 opportunities for you to get started in sharing your faith immediately.� At the end of CLASS 401, you can pray about joining Saddleback on the greatest adventure of your life.

2/12/2012 12:00:00 AM CLASS 301 - Discovering my Ministry

God did not design ministry for just a few with seminary degrees.� At Saddleback, we believe that every member of our church is a minister.� During 301 you will learn how God can use your Spiritual Gifts, your Heart (passions), your Abilities, your Personality and your Experiences to minister to the needs of others.� When you chose to follow Christ, you were given special abilities, known as Spiritual Gifts.� God gave you these gifts for you to use to build up His Church.� God also gave you passion for particular activities and subject.� Having the heart for specific things, people or circumstances is to be used to guide us into a ministry that we really care about.� In 301, you will be shown how to assess your abilities, gifts and passions to see where in ministry you will love to serve.

To facilitate the check-in process, please remember to bring your Saddleback One Card.� If you cannot locate it or never received one, there will be a separate check-in area to assist you.

NOTE: Assistive Listening Devices are available for the Hard of Hearing.

3/14/2012 12:00:00 AM Married Life Essentials: Honor

Does he really love me?
Why won’t she respect me?
I don’t feel important to him anymore.
I can’t seem to do anything right.
Honor is one of the most forgotten aspects of a healthy marriage. Too often we spend time looking out for ourselves instead of our spouse. Yet God has called us to honor our spouse as an act of worship to Him. Surrendering your rights for the sake of oneness with your spouse and choosing to honor one another will bring you to a new level of intimacy, oneness and fulfillment in your marriage.

This event is one of five stand alone events designed to give you a picture of what a healthy relationship looks like. So whether you’re thinking about marriage, engaged to be married, or have been married for years, join us for MarriedLife Essentials: Honor!

This class will be presented ONLINE. You can participate from your home computer (Mac or PC, iPhone, iPad or Android device). Materials for this class will be sent via weblink. You will be able to print the materials at home.

LT2 Health teaches how to balance God’s purposes in your group. When a group of people get together with different ideas, personalities and gifts, leading them is not always easy. This study teaches you the host AND the group how to balance the Great Commission and Great Commandment within the context of your group.

SPECIFICALLY: We will address expectations, conflict resolution, how to choose your next study, how to help people to arrive on time, how to get commitment from the group, how to use the Spiritual Health Assessment & Small Group Guidelines and a myriad of other topics that are directly related to a healthy and long lived group. The session provides practical information.

We highly recommend that you and your whole group participate during your regularly scheduled small group time. Having your full group attend will help everyone be empowered to contribute and participate. If the whole group participates, the group will clearly understand why we meet and the expectations of being a group member.

Look at THESE PICTURES to see how 11 members of one small group participated in a live ONLINE class during their small group meeting. Even if you have completed LT Health, this is a great way to give all your members an opportunity to conveniently take the class.

3/24/2012 12:00:00 AM Global PEACE Night

All are welcome - even if you haven't been on a PEACE trip. Come join others for a fun time with food and fellowship.

This is a great time to connect with others who have a heart for PEACE, share experiences, and to hear from one another about what God is doing through PEACE around the world. You will have the opportunity to connect with members who have gone On Mission for PEACE to Africa, Asia, Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, and Native America.

We will hear from teams that have returned, pray for those that are leaving, and learn what's new with PEACE.

Bring your favorite dish to share.

We would love for you to join us!

All members of the small group are invited to participate. At a minimum the host and the co-host or another member should attend.

This is also a good refresher course if it's been more than a few years since you've last attended this class. As Saddleback grows and changes, so too does our training material.

4/11/2012 12:00:00 AM Married Life Essentials: Relational Intimacy

Why doesn't he talk with me like he used to?
We used to never argue like this before!
Isn't sex a central part of intimacy?
What happened to the romance in our relationship?

Most of us marry with the idea that our lives will sustain the feelings of relational bliss we had when we were dating. What we find is that reality is much more complex and other things compete for our attention. We worry about careers, money, appointments, repairs, bills, kids ... no wonder we feel distance from our spouses. Together, you can experience a deeper marital intimacy that will have a stronger influence on where and how you spend your time, than the pull of everyday life.

This class is one of five stand alone classes designed to give you a picture of what a healthy relationship looks like. So whether you’re thinking about marriage, engaged to be married, or have been married for years, join us for Marriage Class: Relational Intimacy!
