WELCOME TO SUMMER 2014 It’s said, the more things change, the more they stay the same. That’s so true. Even after two moves in two years we’re aware that nothing much changes. We’re the church in this nation and are even more certain that our mission, our call, our identity all remain the same regardless of which town we’re in. One people; one call. Simple. This week is unique. Many of us have fought hard to be here because we wanted to gather and regroup, and experience again how glorious
it is when the church unites with one voice and worships one God. We know that’s only half the story. We’re gathered church and scattered servants, called ultimately to be about the Father’s business. But this week is about the gathering. Our theme, Made For More, inspires us to reach out to more of God, for more mission, with more character. And we’ve got so much on offer to equip for that. We’ve got Just Space for time out, Just Expression for crazy creative stuff, Marriage courses and One Issue mentoring, more workshops than you can poke a stick at, after hours antics and of course the usual main session worship, teaching and ministry. However we find you this week, energised or exhausted, lack lustre or luminous, the invitation is to a week which empowers and equips you. We encourage you to reach out to God with both hands, to sing your lungs out and cheer your heart out, to grow more in knowing and loving one another and to always remember...you’re with family. Lydia Read Leader, New Wine NZ

FAITH SHARING VISITS BETWEEN CHURCHES

WORKSHOPS We’re about ordinary Christians released and empowered in extra-ordinary ways. Take a break, roll up your sleeves, get practical and put into practice what you’ve heard. It’s about wrestling with real stuff, sharing experience, learning together by talking in the trenches – what a great way to spend the afternoon.
Thursday 1.30pm LEADING LIKE A CHRISTIAN DENNIS TONGOI VENUE: CLASS 1 This workshop helps Christians in the marketplace rediscover their calling. There is a market place revolution connecting people who see their paid employment as their mission. We’ll discuss the opportunities and challenges of being church on Monday. 32
PROPHESY ROBBY DAWKINS VENUE: CLASS 2 Robby has been moving in Prophetic ministry for more than 20 years. His grandfather and mother were considered to be very gifted prophetically. His approach to prophetic ministry is that it doesn’t have to be as complicated as we have made it. God is always speaking and we just have to be aware of it.
HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF CROSSCULTURAL MISSION EXPERIENCE STEVE MAINA VENUE: CLASS 3 Kiwis love to travel overseas. Whether it is the big OE, going on a mission or holiday. How can you make your overseas experience have a lasting impact? PIONEERS VS SETTLERS HOWARD ESPIE VENUE: CLASS 4 To the settler, new opportunities are laced with potential threats while to the pioneer, grounded routine and familiarity can be deathly boring. In this seminar we will explore the different ways that Jesus has gifted his church and how we need to see each of the five voices of leadership (from Ephesians 4) present in a healthy and growing church leadership culture.
SOUND AND LIGHTS LAMPROS SOUND VENUE: MEETING PLACE Come and meet the tech crew from Lampros Sound. If you have an interest in the technical aspects of church service this will be a great time to get some new ideas or talk about issues you face. COUPLES FOR LIFE. SESSION 1 ANDREA WIGGLESWORTH & VICKY MCEVOY VENUE: CLASS 5 Join Andrea and Vicky in this two part, two hour session for couples. God is for marriage, but as couples we are ‘work in progress’. Andrea and Vicky are passionate about revitalising and renewing marriages. These sessions will teach how to keep relationship space free from pollutants, how to foster a culture of appreciation, 33
fondness and respect and how to keep your love alive. Sign up for this workshop at the New Wine office.
Friday 1.30pm BREAKING THROUGH THE MUSLIM BARRIER STEPHANIE DOLE VENUE: CLASS 1 The mission field in many Muslim majority countries is becoming harder to reach. Every 5 years the population of Muslims doubles in NZ. How do we understand our Muslim friends and neighbours and share the Gospel effectively with them? THE GIFT OF TONGUES STEVE GRAHAM VENUE: CLASS 2 Speaking in tongues was a key part of both the Pentecostal and charismatic movements. In the last generation it 34
has often slipped from prominence. A correct understanding suggests it is quite fundamental to an “already but not yet” spirituality of the kingdom and makes sense within that framework. This workshop will help your head get around what’s going on with this gift. BEYOND BETRAYAL: RESTORING THE MISSION TO MAORI KEITH NEWMAN VENUE: CLASS 3 Recovering post-Treaty perspective on stories of Maori and missionary heroes of the faith as foundational for rebuilding 21st century relationships. A MONK’S WALK: CHARISMATIC CONTEMPLATION HOWARD & CHARLOTTE ESPIE VENUE: CLASS 4 In this seminar come and learn about finding God in
the every day, becoming aware of his presence where prayer becomes as simple as breathing. The best way to learn is to do. We will be going on a monk’s walk together in the second half of this seminar. FOR CHURCH LEADERS: QUALITY LEADERSHIP ANDREA WIGGLESWORTH VENUE: LEADERS LOUNGE Emotionally Healthy Churches, Shifting Relationship Climates, Understanding Conflict in the Church, What’s it like to be on the other side of me? and Team dynamics are key areas for any church. Come and glean Andreas thoughts from her years of consulting.
FOR CHURCH LEADERS: MENTORING YOUNG LEADERS ROBBY DAWKINS VENUE: LEADERS LOUNGE Robby will outline his thoughts on how to provide an atmosphere which raises up young leaders for such things as preaching, power ministry, outreach, all in a way which doesn’t cost the culture of the church. Q&A to follow where you’ll want to ask Robby all those difficult questions such as how to handle the really prophetic in your church, how to grow a power ministry which helps rather than hinders, how to plan the best Pet Sunday ever...
Saturday 1.30pm HEALING ROBBY DAWKINS VENUE: CLASS 2 Healing ministry is something Jesus included in what He 35
used to “destroy the works of the Evil one”. God has given us this gift to bring the world into relationship with Him. In this session we will explore the hindrances that have made the church ineffective in healing. GOD AND NEW ZEALAND MARK GRACE VENUE: CLASS 3 It’s 200 years since the gospel arrived in Aotearoa New Zealand. Discover where and how God has and is working in the New Zealand story. Based on Acts 17:24-27. THE NEW THING IN MISSIONS GRADON HARVEY VENUE: CLASS 1 The world of missions is radically changing and western missionaries are not always able to function as effectively as they once did. Churches within the developing world are now 36
succeeding in planting their own new churches – why do they still need us? Come and listen to Gradon share his experiences and get excited about the “new thing” God is doing across the globe and how you can get involved. WORKING FROM REST IN THE HEART OF GOD CHARLOTTE ESPIE VENUE: CLASS 4 Sharing her experiences in health care (and reflections on her own journey through medical training) Charlotte will explore the themes of work and rest, what happens in times of stress and the central importance of experiencing God’s grace in all areas of life. COUPLES FOR LIFE. SESSION 2 ANDREA WIGGLESWORTH & VICKY MCEVOY VENUE: CLASS 5 See earlier workshop detail.
