Session One
Why tentmaking?

We build a case for tentmaking and provide some solutions. Tentmaking in the Bible, history & today. There will be challenges but there will be rewards! This session also gives you an example of how to promote tentmaking in your church.
 
Session Two
Global Job market
Finding a job is not a miracle for the tentmaker but it does require persistence. Know what you are up against and learn ways to make your job search more efficient. The internet has changed the way we look for jobs.
 
Session Three
The Secret
of Effective Tentmaking
Integrating Work & Witness - Workplace Evangelism. Have you ever wanted to share your faith at work only to fall flat? Is it even ethical to do it at work? What are some ways that someone who has never shared their faith at work can begin to do this, without alienating their friends or get fired?
 
Session Four
Steps to Tentmaking
"How to get from where you are today to where you want to be tomorrow" We provide you with an overview of the steps required before you head out. For example: getting your church onboard, building a prayer team & upgrading your skills. Issues before going -  what others have faced before leaving.
