Discerning God's Mission or Purpose: Making Decisions Wisely
Online Workshop facilitated by Dr Omar Djoeandy
author of Redefining Success according to Jesus
Discover blind spots and barriers to our discerning and decision-making. Explore a process that seeks to be holistic, inter-dependent in community and help us exercise our God-given capacity to choose.
Join the 3-week Online workshop on
Saturday 4, 11, and 18 May, 8 to 9:30 AM Nairobi (EAT); 3 to 4:30 PM Sydney (AEST)
Many sincere Christians struggle to discern how God has uniquely shaped them for His purpose and mission. They suffer doubt, anxiety, regret, FOMO, and lack of confidence. This workshop is helpful if you are exploring a career change, serving overseas, facing retirement or a significant transition, and feeling overwhelmed with too many options and fear of making the wrong choice.
Join us in applying a discerning process that seeks to be:
ü Holistic (spiritual, rational, emotional and interpersonal)
ü Biblical and resist taking verses out of context.
ü Helpful to identify our blind spots.
ü Empowering to exercise our God-given choices.

DISCERNING Q & A
1. What if I cannot attend all three sessions?
Participants are encouraged to attend all three sessions for maximum benefit. However, we accept that is not always possible.
Each session’s recording will be available within a few days, and we encourage you to watch as soon as possible and do the assignments.
2. What if my spouse, partner or friend wants to join us?
We value community and journeying together and believe major decisions are best made inter-dependently with others. So we are pleased to extend a 50% discount on the fee you paid per additional person.
3. What if I can join but need to be driving or be with other people?
Participants are encouraged to turn on their videos and be fully engaged for maximum benefit. But, if you must drive or be in a distracting setting, it would be better for you to participate still and gain as much as you can with your video off. Please turn off your video.
Do you have a group that helps you to redefine success according to Jesus?
Join Omar and readers from other cultures as we meet weekly for Online discussions to apply the book.
Maybe,
- You suffer the ‘never enough syndrome’ – ‘my career, house, lifestyle … are not enough and I am not good enough’.
- You are exhausted trying o keep up the image of success and feel more like a failure.
- You want to be a success in the eyes of Jesus and enjoy contentment, find courage, and experience community.
