Unfinished Christians
Reaching Full Potential with God
We are all unfinished Christians - none of us have reached our full potential with God. For those of us in our 20s and our 30 odds who are students, or working, or not working, we are confronted with many choices
that will shape the fabric of our future - our career, our relationships, our
family life, who we are.
PROFILE
Residentials work - whether you are 16 or 60, getting away together, for
an extended period of time - works. It’s why festivals were so important
in the Jewish calendar. Their whole rhythm of life was festivals and celebrations. We want a bigger picture of what God is doing in our land - by
joining from our different traditions and denominations we see and discover that together.

SATURDAY SEMIN A R S
Young adults, 20 - 30 somethings, or whatever we call ourselves in
that wide age bracket somewhere between 19 and 40 - Catalyst is
not designed to be the next cool thing. Catalyst is to be a blessing
for the local church. People in their 20s and 30s are the Church. We
want Catalyst to be a place where the local church, from all denominations and from all Christian backgrounds can be affirmed, built
up and celebrated. We also want Catalyst to be a place where people can ask questions about the local church, find hope in the local
church, and reignite faith in the local church.

W I SE WOMEN!
MI S SION: AC TOR S &
S TORY TELLER S
What is all the fuss about women in leadership? Is this even still an issue in
life and in Church? Are men any good at spotting and nurturing leadership in
women? This seminar will look at scripture, experience and personal stories to
help us better understand and celebrate the gift of women to the Church and
society, while not shying away from some of the difficult questions or debates.
From the beginning, the family of Father, Son and Holy Spirit have been at
work, together revealing a story of love, restoration and redemption. We
are not in the stalls looking on as this story unfolds; instead, we've been
invited onto the stage as actors and storytellers. In this seminar, we will
be exploring the story of mission and practically tackling the important
question, "How on earth do we do mission today?"

If you have ever felt a disconnect between what you feel like God has
placed in your heart and what you are surrounded by everyday then this
is the seminar for you! Andy and Kate will be unpacking what they have
learned about life and calling as they have learned to "lead where they
are” and the importance of that posture in getting from here to there.
In this seminar Phil will expertly look at how to make the bible come and
stay alive in our lives. Come and discover the bigger picture of the God
story and how we fit in. Come and glean some useful practical study and
learning guides from the genius that is Phil Emerson.
God in my essay, there in my thinking;
God in my bedroom, God in my drinking;
God in my future, planning and dreaming;
God in my lectures, failing and weeping;
Be my everything, Be my everything.
Putting God at the heart of all you are at University.
The space and place to enjoy some great live music and even a little bit of
dancing! Come and go as you please and you are welcome to bring you own
drinks and treats with you.

DAVID SMYTH & GUESTS / TEARFUND SEMINAR SPACE / 4.30-5.30PM
Finding purpose at work is one of the greatest challenges in the world
today. Work is a fundamental part of who we are. Our identities can be
defined by our work, but how do we make sure that God is transforming
our whole lives, including our work? Ken will unpack a deeper theology of
the workplace along with practical solutions which inspire and help us live
out our true purpose at work.
Gods mandate for each of us is to be Salt and Light in the world. But
where in this massive world are we currently and how do we fulfil his
purpose for our life and in turn, impact those around us?
In this seminar we will begin to discover the unique way God has created
each us, the calling he's placed on our lives and explore some of the
tangible ways we can walk in His ways.
In Northern Ireland, our past continues to shape our future and our now.
We wouldn’t train up missionaries to send to Bosnia or South Africa without
some context of the conflicts that shaped these cultures. So why do we
continue to do Church in Northern Ireland as if the troubles never really
happened? This is the biggest social justice issue facing the Church in our
land but often we feel ill equipped to engage. Come and get involved.
A place to meet together, relax and develop a learning community that
will help set a Godly Rhythm to the festival and your life. We have Common
Grounds Café partnering with us to make that Rhythm much more enjoyable!
