How to Grow Spiritually Even though You Work at a Church
As a church employee, you probably spend more waking hours at the church than at home! You would think it would be easy to grow in your personal walk with God because you are surrounded by Christians and work in a faith-based environment. However, personal growth can often suffer when you spend so much time focused on ministry to others. This workshop offers practical tips to help revitalize your own walk with God even though you work in a church or faith-based organization.

Similar to the above lesson, this is modified for women who do not work in a ministry but still work hard (at home or at jobs or both) and find it hard to invest in their spiritual life.

Did Jesus Use a Psalm Pilot? Lessons from the Best Time Manager

Jesus accomplished a lot during His ministry years, living according to a philosophy that is a great model for us, too. We'll look at His character, choices and other elements of His life in relation to time management, and receive helpful reminders of the mindset that would help us redeem the time He gives us.

We Interrupt this Work Day . . .
Interruptions - we all have them, and we all get frustrated by them. Just when we are starting into a project, we are interrupted by a phone call, visitor, email or other distraction. Sometimes we feel as if we will never have time to actually work on the projects before us. In this session, we will reframe our perspective about interruptions and learn to welcome them as well as manage them properly.

Testimonials . . .
Comments from BASS Conference (San Francisco) attendees:
"What an unexpected blessing it was to me when Beth first presented the opportunity to do an online Bible study. I was beginning to fall behind in my daily Bible study time. I felt I was walking with God and doing what he wanted so that seemed to excuse my lack of time for getting into the Bible daily. After participating in two studies I have grown to understand that I need that daily Bible study and prayer time to truly know what God would have me do that day and to keep me prepared for any unexpected happenings during the day. It has also helped me look for what God would have me do - all the time. I plan to continue online studies and look forward to the next one."
Patricia, Greenwood, Mississippi
"You did a great job teaching it and we were so fortunate to have you. You really have a talent for reading people and knowing just the right thing to say to the ladies ... I have been so "lost" with what to do and how to do it and how to get motivated, etc., etc., and you and the study put me on the right path. Thank you so much for your time and talent."
Glynnis Judy, South Carolina
"Beth's talks about professionalism and "interruptions are not interruptons" were all wonderful tips. We will use those ideas and share them with everyone at our church office. - I enjoyed the whole program--Beth was great! - I enjoyed the conference and learned something new even though I've attended many years."
Iowa District West Secretarial Conference Attendees, Urbandale, Iowa
"Beth did an outstanding job of putting together her topics for each week and the variety of mediums used really made the class effective... her workshop sessions came out of a combination of things she had learned over time and a natural ability to be organized and efficient.."

"Best workshop of the conference! - Beth Beutler runs an excellent class that helped me look at myself in a whole new way!"
NACBA Conference Attendees, Seattle
"It was a joy to have you with us. You did a wonderful job of reminding us that it is easy to become so involved in the spiritual development of others that we fail in our own spiritual growth. Thank you for reminding us that this can be done in small ways and does not always have to be a large spiritual event. Thank you again for sharing with our group."

"I had the honor of first getting to know Beth personally, and then booking her as the keynote speaker at a training seminar for administrative assistants. The seminar, strangely enough, was held on 9/11/2001, the day of the tragic World Trade Center bombing. In spite of the distractions and heavy hearts of all 85 of us, Beth was professional, warm and heartfelt in her leadership that day. I truly saw what she was made of, not only in the content she had prepared, but in the way she cared for others emotionally while still managing to cover the material she had been asked to teach. Beth is a people-person who understands the balance between effective task management and pastoral concern for the people with whom she works. I found her to be quite inspirational, and her practical tips and life experience were very helpful to the group! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her in a training and consulting role, for anyone who needs both an administrative tune-up and a reminder that people matter."
Former member of pastoral staff, Belmont Church, Nashville, Tennessee
