Free leaders’ training
by preston on Oct.28, 2009, under Events, For Leaders
We are planning a free Evening in the Wilderness for men’s small group leaders this fall. We want to encourage, inspire, and cast a vision for you to lead a men’s small group within your church. This event will be for both current small group leaders and those planning to lead a new small group. If you marked “small group leader” on your response card, we will be contacting you. If you did not turn in a response card and are interested in this leadership event, please e-mail us at info@awakenthegiant.org.
Gary’s Video to show at New Life!
by preston on Oct.28, 2009, under Events
Gary Holcomb’s message from Awaken the Giant will be replayed in its entirety at New Life Pismo this weekend. Pastor Ron Salsbury is in the middle of a 7-part series on the seven deadly sins and has decided to use Gary’s talk to address the sin of lust. Many of you may not have realized that Gary’s appearance at Awaken the Giant was his first ever speaking engagement! This would be a great opportunity to share Gary’s powerful message of redemption with your family or friends. Service times are Friday Oct 30, 7pm (special time) and Sunday Nov 1, at 9am & 11am (remember to set your clocks back 1 hr on November 1 or else you will be 1 hr early!).

Are you ready for Awaken the Giant to re-ignite you to become God’s man living out God’s purposes?
Quite a few people who have just recently found out about the Awaken the Giant event have been asking how they can get their tickets this week. Some have asked whether they or a friend can can buy tickets later this week or even at the door of the conference Saturday morning. We are limited by a few things: (1) We don’t have a way to do will-call and must send out tickets bought online via mail (2) We want to serve an awesome lunch for the men attending (tri-tip sandwiches!) and must place the order for lunch 2 days before the event.
To try and accommodate all the men who want to attend the conference we are going to sell tickets as long as possible online, in local bookstores, and have now added the option of being able purchase tickets at the door (though without a lunch).
Here are your options for buying a ticket to the conference this week:
- Online: You can buy your tickets online for $35 until Tuesday night October 6. (sometime early Wednesday morning we will remove the “buy now” button). Tickets bought online will be guaranteed a lunch at the event. We will be serving Tri-Tip sandwiches described by our own expert bar-b-que-er as “better than I can make”. Click here to buy tickets online now.
- Local Bookstores: We will sell tickets for $35 at local bookstores until they close Friday night. But only tickets purchased by Wednesday will be guaranteed a lunch at the event. Tickets purchased Thursday and Friday will not include a lunch. Click here to see a list of local bookstores selling tickets.
- At your church: Quite a few Central Coast churches have been selling tickets to Awaken the Giant at a discount of $33. If you get a ticket from your church it will include the free tri-tip sandwich lunch.
- At the door: We will sell tickets at the door for $35 via cash and check only. Unfortunately tickets purchased at the door will not include lunch. You still will get 4 amazing speakers both nationally known and local, great worship, and a chance to get plugged in with local churches and men’s small groups.
Please buy your tickets as soon as possible. We would love to feed you some great tri-tip along with providing you a great conference. Regardless when you get your ticket, we want you there and we look forward to seeing you at Awaken the Giant this Saturday, October 10 in Pismo Beach!
