Hot Lunch:
We are partnering with NightShift Ministries and their food truck to bring a premium hot lunch to our men's conference. This does increase the price of lunch, and ISI is investing in each lunch sold, but the net profits go to support the excellent work of NightShift as they reach out to support the less advantaged. Your cost for lunch is $12. Tips and donations are encouraged.

MORNING SEMINARS
Red Skies @ Dawn: Responding to Religious Persecution in Canada Dr Jim Cunningham, Author & Founder • Go Teach Global Society • Langley BC Synopsis: Canada is morphing into a New Canada which is less than supportive of a Christian Worldview based on Biblical values. We will consider Jesus’ “Unwelcome Promise” of Luke 6:20-36 — and how we can respond Biblically to it! The Divorced Man - It's a Different Life Peter Biggs, Writer & Church Resource • Abbotsford BC Synopsis: Fifteen years ago my marriage finally broke. I was a Pastor. I underwent traumatic losses. My kids, teenagers at the time, blamed me and pulled away. I was broken. Allow me to help you understand something of the common experience that goes with divorce. Pass Me Another Brick - Investing in Missions Marlowe Janke, Director • Men for Missions Canada • Calgary AB Description: How can men use their trades, talents, and leadership skills to invest in the Kingdom of God as they go On Mission with Jesus? This seminar is for those who are interested in making a practical difference in our world!! A ministry at home and a mission around the globe. This could be the start of a Life Changing Journey. SOGI: Our Responsibility to Protect Women and Children Paul Dirks, Research Director • Parents United Canada • New Westminster BC Synopsis: Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (Transgender) Ideology has gripped our nation and its schools. Come and hear stories from the Canadian Senate, our public schools, and learn where all this is heading in the next 5 to 10 years if we don't stop it. This is a call for men to step up and protect the women and children of our culture who will bear the brunt of Satan's assault on the family. Man of God Chris Tinworth, Ministry Ambassador • In Touch Canada • Abbotsford BC Synopsis: What does it take to be a “real” man? Daily, we see examples of men behaving badly and being accused of ungodly actions. In this seminar, we’ll look at ourselves as Christian men who can set a better example by learning about manhood from Jesus. Our goal is to challenge and equip one another to become a better leader, teacher, father and husband. Prayer - This Means War! Ben Cohen, Messianic Christian Rabbi • Surrey BC Description: In the Old Testament, the greatest warriors were not only proficient with the instruments of warfare - swords, bows and spears, they also invoked the power of God through prayer. Join us to as we learn about the Christian's battlefield of prayer. Scripture and the Power of God George Pearce, President • Creation BC • White Rock BC Description: There seems to be uncertainty today about what the Scriptures "mean" on issues related to science. This seminar looks at what the Scriptures do say and how this is related to the Power of God. Bible Memory Techniques Jason Strain, Pastor • BibleSong.ca • Surrey BC Description: As Christians, we understand the tremendous value of memorizing Bible verses to enrich our lives and equip us for sharing wisdom with others. However, it seems that this spiritual discipline of memorization is a dying art today. The method with which you enter information into your brain determines your success in retrieving it later. This workshop will equip you with several techniques to strengthen your input and recall of scripture memorization. |
AFTERNOON SEMINARS Finding Refuge when Dreams are Shattered David Harris, Author • Abbotsford BC Description: All of us will go through some kind of storm in our lives. It’s not easy to navigate a storm that’s shattering dreams. Do you give up? Do you look for help? Is God with you in all this? Will He rescue you? How can you keep your faith if the storm is long-lasting? Can you come out better at the end? It takes transparency with God to survive and come back to fulfill your destiny. Church Security - Keeping People Safe CANCELLED TBA • Fellowship of Christian Peace Officers • Lower Mainland BC Romance for Dummies: A Practical Guide for Men Dave Klassen, National Director • Athletes in Action Canada • Abbotsford BC Synopsis: Practical ways to ignite romance in your relationship.

Learn the basics of coaching from both a church and business point of view.

Digital copies of all the forms and resources will be made available to all who attend this seminar. Do We See the Signs? Claude Paquin, Speaker • Voice of the Martyrs Canada • Surrey BC Synopsis: The Enemy has increased his attacks on the body of Christ. From our schools to our workplaces to everywhere we go, Satan, in his hatred, is trying to kill the Gospel message and God's people. Are we ready to stand up against it or are we willing to be victims? Protect This House! Robert Dobson, Blended Family & Grandparenting Staff Associate • FamilyLife Canada • Langley BC Synopsis: Men are hardwired to protect the people they love. Sometimes "life" gets in the way of making that happen. It's inevitable that there are times in all our lives when there is pain and disappointment. What would it look like for us as Christian men to rise up and fulfill the role God created for us. Freedom! How to Fight for the Life Jesus has for You! Dave MacLean, Speaker, Author & Founder • Wholehearted Men • Kelowna BC Description: Jesus promised us abundant life, but He also told us we have an enemy out to steal, kill and destroy all that God has for us. In this seminar, you will understand the nature of the spiritual opposition set against you, and how you can overcome it to live the life Jesus promised us. Understand the Lies That Bind and the Tools of Truth that sets us free - you will leave a changed man! |
