Are you ready to connect with other pastors and sharpen your skills in understanding and preaching the Word? Join us for the upcoming Simeon Trust Workshop on Biblical Exposition. Few investments have a greater long-term impact on a pastor's ministry than growing in the faithful preaching of God's Word. While setting aside three days may feel costly in the midst of a busy ministry season, the fruit will extend far beyond the workshop itself. Every sermon you preach afterward has the potential to better serve and strengthen the people God has called you to shepherd.

These workshops include a combination of interactive instructional sessions, encouraging expositions, and small group sessions where participants present work they've done in advance on specific passages and work through it together.

Each preaching workshop focuses on a specific genre of biblical literature, and this year we’re excited to have Jon Dennis (one of the co-founders of Simeon Trust!) and Neal Patel leading the workshop. They will be exploring the Gospel of Mark and how to faithfully preach Gospels and Acts. You can read more about their ministries on the workshop page linked below. We’re confident this will be a meaningful opportunity to make progress together. 

The workshop is October 21-23, 2026, at First Evangelical Free Church (1825 N. Woodlawn, Wichita, KS). If you plan to come, I’d encourage you to register early and take advantage of the early registration price; cost is $139 before September 14. After that, the cost goes up to $159.

Here’s the link to the workshop webpage where you can register or find more information about the workshop and how to prepare:
