Age Appropriateness of Upcoming WE

We've received numerous inquiries asking about the age-appropriateness of the sessions at the upcoming Mother/Daughter Winter Encouragement with speaker Leslie Ludy.  We realize this is a concern for many of you, but we want to reassure you that it is also a concern of ours and of Leslie Ludy's. 

All four sessions will be suitable for all ages.

We also want to let you know that this is such a concern to Leslie that she has just finished negotiating with her publisher to allow her to edit her book Authentic Beauty and make it suitable for all ages.  This new version should be available in May 2012.

On a different note, we want to announce that we have our very own website!  Please visit www.sechdf.com and check it out.  Any and all feedback is very welcome so tell us what you think!!

We look forward to seeing you all in a couple of weeks!

Family Worship Conference

Family Worship Conference

With Pastor Marcus Serven

Presented by Southeastern Christian Home Discipleship Families

Sept. 30 – Oct. 1, 2011

Hope Presbyterian Church

4101 Sandy Plains Road

Marietta, GA  30066

Could you use some help and encouragement with the Biblical practice of family worship? Join us for an inspiring and practical conference taught by Pastor Marcus Serven. You’ll go home with a new vision and enthusiasm for discipling your children and glorifying God in your family devotions.

Friday Sept. 30, 7- 9 p.m.

Get excited about our topic as Pastor Serven casts the vision for Family worship. Following his introductory remarks, he’ll introduce his family who will sing a couple of their favorite Psalms. Afterwards, stay for a fellowship reception and get to know the Servens and the other families attending the conference. Light refreshments provided, and outdoor games, weather permitting.

Saturday Oct. 1, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

After each 45-min. lesson taught by Pastor Serven, you’ll get a chance to reflect and consider how to apply what you’ve learned in a half-hour small group discussion. After lunch (pack your own or visit a local restaurant), we’ll all tune our voices for congregational Psalm singing led by Dr. Dan Steenson.

Topics include:

     Family Discipleship – the Bigger Picture

     Family Worship – its Motives and Rewards

     Family Worship – its Joys and Challenges    

     Family Worship – its Implementation and Practice

     Q & A Session – Pastor and Mrs. Serven

Admission: $20 each first two adults; $10 each additional member of the family up to five. Children 3 and under free. Make reservations by sending a check payable to Brian Toussaint.
Mail to: Brian Toussaint, SCHDF, 122 Clarin Way, Peachtree City, GA 30269

Early Registration Offer: A FREE copy of the book “Family Worship” by Joel R. Beeke will be awarded to the first five families to register.  All paid registrations must be received by Sept. 23, 2011.

About our speaker: Pastor Marcus Serven has been a Presbyterian minister since 1980 and currently serves at Covenant Family Church (RPCGA) in Troy, Missouri (www.covenantfamilychurch.net). In addition to his pastoral ministry, Marcus has a great love for the history of Christ’s Church and has written and lectured widely on the Reformation and the lives of the key Reformers (www.genevanfoundation.com). He recently played the part of John Calvin in a debate against Charles Darwin at Vision Forum’s Reformation 500 event. 

The Serven family, Marcus and Cheryl along with their nine children, have been actively engaged in multiple areas of cultural transformation—church ministry, hospitality, home education, film-making, writing, and encouraging Hymn & Psalm-singing. Pastor Serven has earned degrees from the University of California, B.A. (1976); Fuller Theological Seminary, M.Div. (1979); and Covenant Theological Seminary, Th.M. (1992) and D.Min. (Candidate).

About Dr. Dan Steenson: The Lord led Dan and Katie Steenson to the Psalter in 2001 while visiting a local church in Atlanta. They soon began singing psalms together in their home and were especially drawn to the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ throughout the Psalms. Within a few months, their church began singing from the Trinity Psalter. Since then, Dan has been providing musical support and encouragement to the body of Christ in the singing of psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. The Steenson family also hosts a psalm fellowship in their home on the first Friday of each month. It is a joy to spend these evenings in song, prayer and Christian fellowship with believers of like precious faith who represent several Bible-believing congregations in Atlanta.

Southeastern Christian Home Discipleship Families is a regional, not-for-profit support group ministering to homeschooling families. Our desire is to be a tool to train and equip Christian homeschooling families to stand firm in the faith, pass on a Biblical vision to the next generation, and provide an opportunity to network with other like-minded families.
