Seeds New England: When God creates a team you can be sure you are chosen. Learn how to bring people to Jesus and find joy in service. Enjoy stimulating general sessions lead by Russel Burrill. Choose 4 or 24 break-out sessions. The beautiful setting of Camp Winnekeag is a perfect place to retreat for a while and learn more of Him who said "Follow Me". For more information see www.nadei.org [2] or talk with Andreas Goelzer.
The Giving Heart: The American way of thinking is that we are self-sufficient and that we are responsible for all that we possess. The Bible provides a different perspective, of course: that we are merely the overseers of God's earthly domain, responsible for taking care of His resources until Jesus returns. Getting people to understand and accept our role as managers rather than creators of wealth and resources is a crucial element toward encouraging good stewardship. --George Barna
