Here's a sampling of some of the sessions that are included....
summit kick-off: RISE UP renewed + Q&A
with Francis Chan, David Schmus, & Linda Kardamis
When David faced his most difficult defeat and his men were about to stone him, Scripture records that “David strengthened himself in the Lord his God” (1 Sam 30:5). After a year and a half of pandemic- related challenges, we need to be renewed and find strength in God as educators. Come be encouraged and challenged by pastor, missionary, and author Francis Chan who will help us to Rise Up Renewed in Christ.
the will to learn: helping students genuinely care about learning in a world that often doesn't
with Dave Stuart, Jr.
For students to grow and succeed, they have to care about the work they are doing. But how do we get them to care? In this session, we'll examine the five key beliefs that unlock care and how to instill them in your classroom.
Responding to challenges like Jesus would
with David Schmus, Elizabeth Schmus, and Heather Kohnen
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.

processing grief & disappointment
with Janice Tarleton of Sustainable Faith
Grief is the God-designed (and Jesus-demonstrated) way to handle pain – the pain of death AND the multitude of life’s big and small losses, including those due to the pandemic. Unprocessed, pain piles up and spills out in hurtful, destructive ways, and it diminishes joy, intimacy, and connection. Learn more about grief, loss, transition and practices to engage with God and emotion.
tactics: A Realistic Gameplan for Discussing Christian Convictions
with Greg Koukle, author of Tactics
Do you freeze up when speaking to non-believers about Jesus or other Biblical worldview questions? Do you avoid these conversations due to pressure to “close the deal” or win the argument?
