I Need To Hear It Again

I'm facilitating the Raising a Modern Day Knight class at my church again starting in October. You would think I might be getting tired of this by now, but I am very excited. I think of something different or learn something new every time. My favorite financial adviser, Dave Ramsey, always says God has him teach "financial peace" because he needs to hear it more than anyone else...I feel the same way about Him having me teach "strategic fatherhood".

I'm praying the right guys show up. I'm taking a little different tact this time and having an intro session where the guys get a chance to see more of what it is about before committing to take the 6 week class. Hopefully, this will get more guys in the door ("I'll attend the first meeting just to see what it is about...") and they will get hooked and stay.

Here's the announcement:

Raising A Modern Day Knight

The next class of Raising A Modern Day Knight meets on Wednesday evenings from October 1st through November 19th at 6:30PM. RMDK meets in room CC222 at Colonial Baptist Church.

Raising A Modern Day Knight is an 8-week class for men who are raising sons. This study will give you the opportunity to explore how you can raise your sons into a noble, vibrant masculinity and a healthy manhood, thus propelling your fatherhood to another level.

This series is led by Dave Conklin, a father of three sons.

The series is a study for men based on the best-selling Focus on the Family book, Raising a Modern Day Knight. The class format will consist of the following three elements:

* Group time to discuss the reading from the previous week.
* Video featuring Robert Lewis and Dennis Rainey
* Small group discussion

We do ask that if you choose to participate, you make attendance a priority. Also, please note that there will be reading assignments each week from the book Raising a Modern Day Knight.

Registration:

The first session is an introduction to the course. Feel free to attend the first session with no obligation. At the first session, you will have the opportunity to register for the remaining sessions, and purchase the materials.
