Naomi offers the following workshops in connection with the From Sadie’s Sketchbook Series. Each workshop can be booked for 45-90 minutes in length, and can be adapted for small or large groups.
Of a recent workshop at Kingsway Community Church, Julie Jahde, Children’s Ministry Pastor, said:
“I myself really appreciated the lesson of “Who Writes Your Story” and have brought up the main ideas (God, you, and the enemy as writers) to several different groups of people over the past week. Whether it is a group of 11th grade girls or a group of single moms, we all need to be reminded of these truths and it is rewarding to think of our lives as a story with daily decisions of who we will listen to. But in all my years of teaching children’s ministry, I have never seen these ideas approached in such a tangible way for young girls- and I was thrilled that you were planting these ideas in their hearts as such a tender age! Thank you for offering this workshop- I believe that the Lord has used your past experiences and the themes of your life to be exactly the right person to now be giving this kind of a workshop to girls!”
WORKSHOP OFFERINGS:
Who’s the Author of your Story?
Do you ever feel like you’re standing in thick fog, staring at a cryptic sign-post, and you just don’t know which path God wants you to choose? In this sixty-minute interactive workshop, Naomi Kinsman will use examples from the Sadie’s Sketchbook series to help young women explore key moments in their own life stories. Participants will gain practical tools to help discern God’s direction, even when the right next step is difficult to see.
Sketching Your Prayers
So often we feel like we must have something to say in order to pray. But listening is a vital element of prayer, as well. In the From Sadie’s Sketchbook series, Sadie discovers sketching as a way of bringing her concerns to God, creating time and space to listen for his guidance. In this sixty-minute hands-on workshop, participants will learn drawing and journaling techniques to add new dimension to their prayer life.
