Hudsonville, MI (PRWEB) September 25, 2013 -- Building God's Way (BGW), a nationwide church architect and builder network that provides a broad range of solutions to Christian ministries, will host a free seminar on Tuesday, October 8 at the Pinnacle Center in Hudsonville, MI. The event will feature expert speakers in the areas of church design, construction, remodeling, funding, growth, and the latest research and strategies for reaching millennials. Church leaders will learn how to build or retool facilities that are more culturally relevant and allow for expanded ministry opportunities in their community.
The keynote speaker for the event will be Jeff Jones, Senior Pastor of Valley Family Church in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Pastor Jones will share his experience in leading his church through a large building project and how church leadership casted the vision to the congregation and encouraged them to step out in faith. With over 20 years of leadership and ministry experience, Pastor Jones' commitment and ability to present the timeless message of Christ in a relevant and practical way has seen countless lives impacted.
Terry Bates, Senior Pastor of OKC Faith Church and author of “Positioning Your Church,” will share proven strategies for creating the momentum necessary to expand ministry, break through growth barriers and successfully raise capital funds in any economic environment.

He also served as a trainer for Dr. John Maxwell’s Million Leader Mandate, in which he was personally involved in training over 250,000 church leaders. Other ministries that Terry leads include T. L. Bates Ministries, Impact 5000 and Christian Leadership International. He is the host of the weekly television and radio ministry “Discover Faith” and is a regular host for TBN and a guest of Daystar.
BGW Founder and Architect Dan Cook will present a unique, Biblical approach to designing and building ministry facilities that can save 20-30% compared to typical construction methods. Attendees will learn how churches and Christian schools across the country are turning their construction sites into mission fields through a program called “The Ministry of Construction.” Dan will also discuss an innovative master planning approach to leverage both land and buildings to generate revenue and sustain ministry growth through creative lease agreements, community partnerships and private equity investment.
