Special Events & Workshops

Special Events

From golf tournaments to galas, special events are a great way for folks to meet, network, celebrate and share their faith. Ken Blanchard, Dick Foth and Adolph Coors are just a few of the nationally-known speakers who have made these events hugely successful.

Workshops

Needle’s Eye is committed to equipping people to share their faith while also being sensitive to preserving the workplace as a place of business. “Sharing Your Faith 101” is an annual workshop designed as an interactive seminar to help take the guesswork out of sharing one’s faith with coworkers and friends.

Past workshops have included, “Dad, the Family Shepherd,” which sought to lay the foundations of Christian parenting for fathers. Also, “Servant Leadership” taught business leaders to lead like Jesus through serving well in their workplaces. Past conferences have included topics on addressing the theology of work and the need for business professionals to view their workplaces as their mission fields.
