What challenges have led others to enroll in a TENTMAKERS weekend experience?

People come to TENTMAKERS facing challenges both big and small. Many are searching for answers and a path forward to help navigate some of the following questions:

  • How do I get more out of my time to be more productive? 
  • How do I get along with my spouse? 
  • How do I raise my kids? 
  • What are my plans for my future? 
  • How do I live life to the fullest? 

TENTMAKERS Weekend Experiences offer not only a Christ-centered retreat from the day-to-day, but gives you the community and coping mechanisms to approach loneliness and isolation in a new way. 

Many people come to TENTMAKERS with a sense that God is leading them to something more, but they're not sure what it is or how to follow that feeling. They just need the right tools to be able to trust and understand this pull towards the divine. They may be in a transition stage in life: a career change, looking at retirement, and looking for direction to follow God in that next stage of their life. Sometimes people come to TENTMAKERS with an overall sense of dissatisfaction with the way life is going and would like some guidance for making it better and moving forward.

How can TENTMAKERS help address these challenges through a Christ-centered weekend experience?

TENTMAKERS leaders are truly invested in people personally. 

One key component of a TENTMAKERS weekend experience is the environment. TENTMAKERS staff are eager to get to know you individually and find out what's going on in your life. You'll feel safe and comfortable, being yourself and you'll able to discover more of who you are because other people see it in you. 

In addition to the community-oriented environment, the TENTMAKERS delivery, content, and our Christian leadership training for teens are truly unique as well. Because we are focused on not only showing and teaching but also giving you the chance to do and practice what you are learning during the experience. 

The content that we focus on equips people with the skills and attitudes they need to apply the knowledge we deliver. Because, at the end of the day, it’s what you do with what you know that really makes the difference. 

Course content is broken out into 12 unique and proprietary leadership discipleship skills. Each weekend experience is designed to develop a specific set of skills selected from those 12 that will achieve the desired result for that experience.

And finally, TENTMAKERS instructors are a key differentiator. Our teams are composed of trainers that have gone through years of extensive training themselves, and carry a genuine passion for these experiences and the people who have come to them. They believe in the power of the experiences because they've lived it themselves, and they want to help others experience transformation as they have.

What Christ-centered principles and life skills will attendees gain from the weekend training programs?

You will walk away from the TENTMAKERS weekend programs with a closer relationship to Christ, and the ability to better navigate your life and your unique challenges. Because these weekend experiences are truly Christ-centered, you will leave with a deeper connection to, and a stronger relationship with Jesus Christ, who will strengthen you through your trials. He helps equip you to be able to handle life's challenges and this program helps facilitate that connection in a way that is unique from other secular adult and teen-based weekend retreats. 

Who is a TENTMAKERS weekend experience right for? Who is a good fit for our Christian training programs?

TENTMAKERS is right for anyone who would like to see change in their lives, change in how they follow the Lord, and those who are willing to step outside of their comfort zone to do it. We grow when we're challenged and we’re successful when we’re surrounded with encouragement, but TENTMAKERS attendees do have to be willing to stretch themselves.

Overall, TENTMAKERS is a fit for anyone of any age who needs or wants to strengthen their relationship with Christ.

How are TENTMAKERS programs Christ centered?

This is truly Christ-centered training, not just world-centered training. At TENTMAKERS, we do believe that Jesus Christ is living amongst us and that Christ is in YOU! 

What makes these Christ-centered programs transformative?

TENTMAKERS programs are transformative because they lead to a deeper connection to and a better relationship with Jesus Christ. He equips you with the ability to handle life's challenges in a new way. 

We focus heavily on Christ's mission and his methods. There's prayer before, during, and after the event. This biblically-based, Christ-centered nature allows the Holy Spirit to work with you in new ways to help you overcome obstacles in life to move forward.
