Stronger Together

6  Stronger Together

There is no “one way” to use this book. Whether you are a leader or simply someone wanting to grow in the knowledge of the Word, this resource is for you! The Stronger Together resource can be used for retreats, conferences, small groups and personal study. If you are leading a conference or retreat, we encourage you to incorporate this theme into every aspect of your event. The worship songs, the prayer times and even the craft should all reflect the theme. When the theme permeates each part of the event, participants are more likely to internalize the message of the theme and communicate it with others. For those leading/teaching others through this material, we have provided a presenter’s guide on page 9 that can walk you through the basics of how to prepare for your presentation. If you would like additional help, we have a resource list on page 33 with recommended reading on this topic. Perhaps this is your first time leading a retreat or maybe you are contemplating starting a retreat of your own. We have a short guide starting on page 27 of our appendices. This guide will help you think through the basics of retreat planning and budget options. Also, see our mission statement for Urban Leadership Retreats starting on page 43. This is the foundation on which World Impact builds all of its SIAFU retreats.
