Course 103: It’s Always a Mistake…Considering for Summer 2012
Registration: Free
BLU Instructor: Steve &/or Julie Baird
Location: TBA
Dates & Times: TBA - Considering for summer 2012
A one hour course + Q&A Discussion after and a career assessment based on a cd sermon by KB Tompkins, New Life Christian Center, Willow, Alaska. So many people ask us as we’re growing up, “What do you want to do when you grow up?”, or say, “It’s all about who you know”, and “Being in the right place at the right time”. But people rarely focus on who we are, and then wonder why our life or career blows up in our face later in life. Learn the importance of discovering who you are, who God created you to become, and using that to help you determine what career choices to make, to help you pray for God’s purposes for your life, and who your relationships will be with - beyond high school & into adulthood.

Teacher’s Notes/Suggestions: use the Passion Set as a class resource by Lance Learning Group, and have the teens list out the top 10 passions they care about, making sure their list is very specific. Rate them 1 – 10, narrow down to top 5, and look for several careers that are compatible with the top 5 on their list, that might also include a little bit of the bottom 5.

“Do you know your mountain? There are seven distinct mountains that have been identified as the seven mind-molders of society – seven major realms of influence that shape the way we live and think. Those who align with their mountain and realize their purpose attain the ability to profoundly impact and influence society.“
This class covers 7 different career paths or spheres of influence in any given society: 1. Arts & Entertainment, 2. Business, 3. Education, 4. Family, 5. Government, 6. Media, and 7. Religion. It’ll help you discover which careers you might be the most compatible with by discovering who you are or who God created you to become, and using that to help you determine what career choices to make, to help you pray for God’s purposes for your life, and who your relationships will be with – while you’re still in high school & going into adulthood, and beyond.
“This class will put you at the cutting edge of a fresh powerful move, and connect you with influential leaders who are forcefully taking their mountains and forging a “tipping point” in cities and regions across America and the world. Learn what you need to Take All 7!”
