Responding to Challenges Like Jesus Would

with David Schmus, Elizabeth Schmus, and Heather Kohnen of CEAI

Saturday, Oct 23 @ 1:00pm EDT

Chuck Swindoll famously said, “Life is 10% what happens to me, and 90% how I react to it.” At CEAI, we see a common pattern: educators who want to be used by God in their schools suddenly find themselves facing challenges with the potential to derail God’s purposes. Through this session taken from the innovative AWAKE One-Day Experience, you will unlock key insights into how we respond to challenges, and discover new strategies to experience greater peace and kingdom impact.

The session will begin 1:00pm EDT on Saturday, October 23. Please click this button to join us at that time:
