Whether you are a new teacher, a Small Group leader, or an experienced teacher, this seminar is one of the best offered anywhere in enabling you to successfully communicate truth to people of any age. Basic, relevant topics are covered simply and well. This clinic is a five-hour seminar, and a portion will be done each of the five breakout sessions. (We are asking that every layperson that leads or teaches Sunday School, regardless of what other ministries they are involved in, would make attending this Teacher Certification Clinic their priority. The material presented covers ministry to every age group from infants to adults, and it is directly applicable to every other ministry in our churches. This is a foundational training seminar, highly beneficial as a refresher course even to experienced teachers. ) S4 - Making the Sunday School Class a Small Group Experience – Wes Bartel (held in the Small Group Track’s room) _________________________________________________________________________________________________ *More sessions may be added per interest.
