Seminar on Advanced Expository Preaching (SAEP)

We provide training for sermon preparation through the Seminar on Advanced Expository Preaching (SAEP), helping you understand the text in the context of the time and culture it was written and then, how to make relevant application for today.
David Nelson developed this seminar during his doctoral studies. It is a three to five day seminar that equips preachers with the “crossing the homiletical bridge method.” It provides pastors with the skill of developing messages that are prescriptive (exhortation) in nature based upon the text.

Multiply - Building an Enduring Ministry Seminar
In this two-day seminar, you will learn the biblical principles of multiplication that will empower you to build a ministry that doesn't just grow but multiplies. God has gifted us with the ability to multiply not only through the creation of life but also through the creation of disciples. Based on the insights of Dr. David Nelson’s book Multiply, this seminar will equip you with the tools, strategies, and mindset to raise leaders and disciple-makers who will carry forward the Great Commission and build a ministry that endures.
The seminar will focus on how God has designed us to multiply biologically and spiritually, as seen in the scriptures from Genesis to the early church in Acts. These powerful principles are more than just strategies—they are transformative truths that can be applied to every leader, regardless of ministry size or context.
Throughout the two-day seminar, we will explore eight key principles from David Nelson’s book that will guide you in building a ministry that multiplies leaders, disciples, and gospel impact. These biblically based principles will challenge you and equip you to create a multiplying ministry that lasts for generations.
