Called to Ministry Breakouts

With Scott Pace

Called to Ministry: Is God Calling Me?

How can you be sure if God is calling you to vocational ministry? This session will help you know how to hear God's voice and clarify if He is calling you to ministry.

Called to Ministry: Ministry Roundtable

When you are exploring a call to ministry, it can be helpful to talk with people serving in a variety of ministry roles. This session will include men and women serving in a variety of ministry roles. You will have opportunity to meet them, learn about how they go to where they are in ministry, and ask questions.

Called to Ministry: Why is Seminary Important

Does everyone who feels called to ministry need to go to seminary? How do I choose which seminary to attend? What will a seminary degree equip me to do and how do I choose the right program for me? This session will explore all of those questions. Representatives from all 6 SBC seminaries will be present.

Breakout Sessions

Called to Steward: Managing my time, priorities, money and abilities to align with my commitment to follow Jesus

Andrew Bryan

Do you want your life to be all about success or one that is filled with great significance? So many people think the secret to a successful life is promotion, position, and greater personal expression. However, the real key is to find and live out your mission in life. As we seek to follow after Jesus and commit to aligning all we think, say, and act to that mission, it is important to steward well the time, talent, and resources God has given each of us.

Called to Ministry: Q&A with Chip Luter

Called to Relationship: Rethinking Romance

Chris James

Our culture idolizes romance and the pursuit of “the one” while devaluing or distorting singleness. And too often, the church reinforces these narratives rather than redefining them through the gospel lens. Join us as we learn how to rethink romance, marriage, and singleness by learning how the gospel completely redefines the Christian’s marital status and relational commitments.

Called to Unity: Following Jesus into His vision for unity among believers

Called to Lead: How to prepare & lead a small group Bible study

Drew Felts

Join us to learn essential skills for crafting and leading impactful Bible studies for small groups. From practical tips on leading impactful discussions to how to choose what to study and why it matters, this workshop aims to equip you to be confident in leading others and helping them grow more in Christ.

Called to Follow Jesus in an Age of Gender and Sexual Confusion: Finding Biblical Clarity

Gary Stidham

On every campus, students are grappling every day with questions about sexual ethics and gender identity. As a Christ follower, the most important question we can ask is “What does Jesus have to say about my sexuality?” This session will explore a holistic theology of Christian sexuality, address the common objections to a Biblical view (sexual autonomy, same-sex sexuality, gender ideology, etc), and provide practical applications for how to glorify God in every area of life, including sexuality.

Called to Go: Being a Disciple Also Means Embracing Mission

Jason Thomas

In this session, we will explore what it truly means to be a disciple of Christ, emphasizing the importance of missions in our Christian journey. We’ll explore practical ways to incorporate caring for the lost in our daily lives and how being “called to go” can deepen our faith and impact the world around us. Join us to discover how embracing mission can transform both our lives and our faith communities.

Called to Share: Following Jesus' command to share the Good News

Natalie Arias & CJ Moeneke

This is an interactive breakout on our calling as believers to share the Gospel.. In this session, we discuss how the grace of God burdens our hearts for the lost, makes us look for opportunities to share, and emboldens us to share. Students will leave empowered and equipped to share the Gospel anywhere they go.

Called to Trust: How to trust God in the midst of life’s worst losses and disappointments

Teresa & Bob Royall

Where is God when it really hurts, and what is He up to? If you have ever asked yourself this question, you are not alone—most people have! In this session we will look at scripture to better understand God’s perspective on your pain and explore ways to move beyond the pain to personal transformation.

Called to Peace: What does Jesus have to say about my anxiety?

Called to be a Disciple: Discipleship as a way of life, not just a once a week meeting

Warren Skinner

Following Jesus is a total life pursuit. It is an active and ceaseless pouring out of self, a giving back, and a trusting of the One who has redeemed you. This session will address: Why do we follow? How do we follow? When, where, and to what end do we follow? What will it cost? And, most importantly, what difference will it make?
