“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
The biggest struggle we face is in the mind. But we cannot overcome the battles of the mind unless we know what we are fighting. In this session, learn what is holding you back from the abundant life Christ promises and be refreshed as you learn how to renew your mind.

10:00 am Session 2: “Make Up Your Mind: Unlocking Your Mindset and Transforming Your Life”
Proverbs 4:23 (GNT), “Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts.”
Do you feel stuck in your thoughts? Feel like you cannot overcome the struggle bus of emotions? God’s word holds the key to unlock our thoughts and renew our minds. His word transforms us, but we need to know how to rightly apply it. In this talk, Denise shares how we can become entrenched in mindsets and how to apply God’s word to be set free from them. Our thoughts shape our lives. Positivity cannot transform our thoughts, but God’s word can.

1:00 – Session 3: “Reset Your Mindset: Overcoming Negative Mindsets through God’s Word”
Romans 8:5 (ESV)
“For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.”
Our expectations can lead us into discouragement but God’s expectations for us lead us to joy and hope. In this talk, learn Biblical and tactical strategies to confront negative mindsets. Renewing our mind is possible as we reset our mindset with God’s word.

7:00 pm – Session 4: “Make Up Your Mind: Having the Mind of Christ”
1 Corinthians 2:16 (ESV)
“‘For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?’ But we have the mind of Christ.”
Christ came to give us an abundant life but so often we walk in the flesh rather than the Spirit. We get to choose. We don’t have to remain in slavery to the world system or negative thoughts. Learn to think biblically and how to have the mind of Christ so you can apply it to your life.
8:00 pm – Small Break Out
SUNDAY
9:00 am Breakfast
10:00 am Session 5: “Forming Your Battle Plan: Learning How to Fight Right”
2 Corinthians 10:5 (NIV)
“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”
We get stuck in negative mindsets when we don’t know how to fight through them biblically. When we fix our eyes on Jesus, Jesus fixes our thoughts. Learn how to fight through the battle of the mind so you are equipped to overcome and be victorious in your daily life.
