How to Read the Bible and Understand It

Charles Baik - Hosted by Wycliffe

Having a roadmap makes reading, understanding, and applying the Bible more accessible. This workshop will provide an example of this roadmap on how to approach the Bible in your daily readings. You’ll learn how to identify the main point of a passage, connect it to the overarching story of Scripture, and apply it with confidence.

What Makes Life Meaningful?

Abby Lobert - ActFive

Life after high school can feel daunting. Will you go to school? For what? Maybe you'll take a gap year, do an internship, or go on a trip to try something new. Wherever you go, you need to have tools in your toolbelt so that you can thrive. This workshop will challenge participants to think about what tools they have with them as they move forward, and will help them to explore some options that they haven't considered.

Brandon Ting

Becoming a non-anxious presence

Brandon Ting

We live in what one psychologist calls "the anxious generation," where anxiety, distraction and loneliness often shape our daily lives. But is that all there is? Are reduced screen time, less social media, or more Bible reading and prayer the only solutions? How can we become a "non-anxious presence"? One ancient Jewish rabbi claimed to have the answer: Jesus offers a way to rest amidst restlessness—just what our anxious generation is yearning for. Whether you're searching for answers to today's struggles or simply curious about what Jesus has to offer, this workshop is for you.

Christine Lee

Biblical Justice

Christine Lee

Justice means to "make things right". But how can we "make things right" in our society today? Should we focus on social action or sharing our faith?

How to Develop a Theology of Gaming

Hannah Lau

What do I do with my life?

Hannah Lau

How many times have you asked God for His calling in your life? Maybe you’ve received an answer, maybe you haven’t. We all want our lives to mean something, we want to make a difference. But there are so many questions along the way. How do I know if I heard right? Can a calling change over time? How do I discern? This workshop picks apart the honest questions about direction, trajectory, and how we navigate a life of obedience to God.

Hannah Lau

How ‘lit’ is it to follow Jesus?

Hannah Lau

Maybe you’ve been going to church your whole life, maybe you just started. Maybe your parents made you come to TC, maybe your friends did. Regardless of how you have come to know Jesus, sometimes it just doesn’t seem that…cool? You’ve all thought it, so let’s talk about it! This workshop will unpack what an authentic journey with Jesus is about, and honestly talking through why sometimes we feel like doing otherwise.

Life and Faith After High School: Where is God calling me, and how can I practically grow in my faith?

Louis Kim and Lauryn Francisco - Redeemer

In this session we are going to zoom out a little bit and think about some of the big questions. What am I passionate about? What are my talents? Where do I see need in the world? How do these impact what I want to study and how to choose a career? Some of you might know exactly what you are hoping to do, regardless this session will help you to start working towards an idea of vocation.

We will also explore practical ways in which you can actively grow in your faith and make it your own after you leave the four walls of your school/home. Come join us as we wrestle with why many leave their faith or become/stay lukewarm as they enter this next stage of their lives, and how we can ensure that does not happen to us.

Mark Lee Chan

How to be a Christian on the Weekdays (Not Just a "Sunday" Christian, but everyday)

Mark Lee Chan

How do you be a Christian outside of church? The answer to that question depends on what you believe makes someone Christian. Is a Christian someone who calls themselves a Christian? Someone who believes that God exists? Someone who does more good things than bad? In this workshop we will explore what it means to be Christian, as well as some practical tools for living our faith out everyday!

Mindy Kim

Why Should I?

Mindy Kim

There seem to be a lot of Do's and Don'ts that come with being a Christian. Do you ever ask why Christians should read the Bible? Why pray? Why go to church?
