3 WELCOME New Wine s passion is to see churches renewed, church leaders passionate about their calling, to see people sharing their faith and doing the works of God s kingdom... frankly, to see the nation changed through you is going to be a great year for New Wine. We re planning leaders retreats, weekend conferences, leaders networking days, specialist training events, faith sharing visits, and team weekend gatherings - but it all starts here at the summer festival. How? Because we re about gathering those with a heart to see God s kingdom breaking into poverty and darkness; and strengthening and encouraging them in the work Christ has called them to. We are about you, and our shared journey. Our prayer is that these next five days will be an oasis for the dry and weary, it will be a catalyst for those eager and sold out for Jesus, it will be a challenge for those jaded by the everyday. Whereever you are we encourage you to reach to God with both hands open, to sing your lungs out and cheer your heart out, to grow more in knowing and loving one another. Transformation of a nation starts... or stops... with you, and we know God will use this New Wine festival if you let him! Leader, New Wine NZ 3

20 WORKSHOPS New Wine is about ordinary Christians released and empowered in extra-ordinary ways. Take a break, roll up your sleeves, get practical and put into practice what you ve heard. It s about wrestling with real stuff, sharing experience, and learning together - a great way to spend the afternoon. THURSDAY 1.30PM A Brief Introduction to Biblical Preaching (part 1) Tony Plews Stream: Leadership Venue: Room 1 This seminar is for churches who want to introduce their leaders to the elements of biblical preaching. It does not require any previous preaching experience. The Art of Deep Conversation Jonathan Hesp Stream: Mission & Justice Venue: Room 2 For some reason we think conversations about faith and the things of God are hard. But are they really? Imagine you re at the dining table with friends. How do you get to the deeper conversations of life that are impacting and possibly even spiritual? Jono will lead a discussion and equip us to do just that. PROPHECY AND PRAYER We all need deeper prayer support from time to time. Each afternoon at 3pm Jasmine Fidow and Ian and Helen Hardcastle, will offer 15 minute spots in the workshop rooms for just that - deeper prayer. Sign up outside the New Wine office. 20

21 Integrating Refugees into our Communities John and Kristina Stream: Mission & Justice Venue: Room 3 A discussion of how the church can strategically engage with refugees. This workshop considers New Zealand s refugee perspective and discusses the specifics of programmes which have had an impact for Arab churches and how to use these principles in New Zealand. Praying for Others Confidently Fraser McDermott Stream: Christian Living Venue: Room 4 Do you want to grow in confidence praying for others? This workshop will equip you to pray with the authority that Jesus has given - simply, quickly, powerfully. You will be invited to take part in the New Wine ministry team, put the training into practice and see God heal people through you. Sex in NZ Today Jo Robertson Stream: Christian Living Venue: Room 5 A comprehensive look at cultural trends, youth issues, media, and myths that surround sex in modern NZ. This will be a safe place where questions are welcomed and tricky subjects can be explored. Leadership (church leader focus) Karl Martin Stream: Leadership Venue: Leaders Lounge Great leadership finds its truest expression in releasing and resourcing the dreams God has placed in others, rather than convincing them to simply serve your vision. Come to this workshop and learn how to identify, grow and release others as Karl shares the leadership principles of Jesus. 21

22 FRIDAY 1.30PM A Brief Introduction to Biblical Preaching (pt 2) Tony Plews Stream: Leadership Venue: Room 1 Part 2 of a 2 part series Human Trafficking and the NZ Link Sarah Scott-Webb Stream: Mission & Justice Venue: Room 2 Human trafficking is the fastest growing and most profitable crime in the world. Through her work with Hagar caring for those who have been rescued, Sarah has first-hand knowledge of the devastating impact of this injustice. With research released last month concerning the size of the problem in New Zealand, Sarah has hard Kiwi data and a unique perspective to teach us from. Prophecy Jasmine Fidow Stream: Spiritual Growth Venue: Room 3 God speaking to us and through us is a challenge, yet it is as real today as it always has been. The aim of this workshop is to encourage and release us to respond to Paul s call that we eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy to strengthen, encourage and comfort. (1 Cor 14:1) Women in Leadership Karl Martin Stream: Theology Venue: Room 5 Karl is utterly convinced that the unshackled flourishing of female leadership in our community is a sign and a symbol of the Kingdom of God at hand. In this workshop we will look beyond traditional arguments and into authentic models and stories. Sex in the Church - A Leadership Conversation (church leader focus) Jo Robertson Stream: Leadership Venue: Leaders Lounge Sexual dysfunction and brokenness is found as commonly in the church as it is in general public, perhaps even more so. Let s look at the issues honestly and get some practical how-to s for moving your church forward into healing. 22

23 SATURDAY 1.30PM Business Transformation Martyn Bowis Stream: Christian Living Venue: Room 1 The only constant in life is change, the tool God uses to motivate transformation. In this workshop you will learn how leading businesses respond to change with confidence and agility. Gain new insights and tools you can apply in not only your work environment but also your personal life. The Muslim Mindset Stephanie Johnston Stream: Mission & Justice Venue: Room 2 The church faces an urgent need to understand Islam and learn how to confront Muslims with the truth of the gospel of Christ. Stephanie will offer us a guide for understanding and responding to Islam. We will discuss from a political and theological insight how Islam differs from Christianity, describe its place in the world today, and offer practical advice for how Christians can in a wise, biblical and Christ-like way befriend and speak to Muslims about the gospel. Healing Jasmine Fidow Stream: Spiritual Growth Venue: Room 3 Jesus says to all his disciples heal the sick, proclaim the kingdom. This is a practical workshop on the how s, when s and why s of healing designed to equip us to see more. The Mind of an Addict Emily Duncan Stream: Christian Living Venue: Room 5 From the base of her own recovery experience, Emily has been working with addicts therapeutically for over 6 years. For both professionals and friends and family of those in addiction, understanding the way an addict thinks is vital for supporting them into recovery and ultimately into discipleship as a follower of Jesus. Come and learn from someone who has been there and has developed a unique model of working with people both one on one and in group situations. 23

24 Tools for Leadership (church leader focus) Ruby Duncan Stream: Leadership Venue: Leaders Lounge Leadership books and advice abounds, so with many years experience leading a not-for-profit Christian organisation, and working in churches and mission agencies, Ruby has scoured the masses of leadership tips and tools and come up with the ones she has found most effective. Whatever leadership role you find yourself in, these tools are worth having in your bag. WE RE GRATEFUL FOR OUR WONDERFUL SPONSORS Ann Sinclair Charitable Trust Wilberforce 21 Winton and Margaret Bear Trust And also Fonterra, Lampros Sound, World Moving and Storage and so many more who have cooked, donated, washed, baked, loaned furniture, administered administration stuff, transported equipment and worked like Ewoks on the third moon of Endor. 24

25 A NEW WINE GUIDE TO PRAYING FOR OTHERS New Wine is passionate about meeting with God. We let God lead and make space for him to meet with us as much as possible. To give room for this to happen there ll be lots of waiting, and praying for particular things or people God wants to minister to. This might all sound a bit different, but that s just dressing. It s the same God and we ll guide you every minute. In addition to the speakers and hosts on stage the prayer ministry team have loads of experience, and love to stand alongside what God is doing, guiding you and answering any questions you have. WHAT HAPPENS? We call it ministry time, and while God is free to do what he wants, we do have a rhythm. We usually start with an invitation from the speaker or host. We often say come Holy Spirit not because he left us, but because we want to put the pressure of us and life and the world on hold and let him be greater in this moment. It s God s time, not ours, and anything might happen. But it s safe, and if you want to receive the best thing to do is focus on him and not others. If you d like to pray for others here s our practice, for both us and you while you re here. 25

26 THE GUIDE Pray with the same gender and in pairs if possible. Ask what they would like prayer for but don t turn it into a long conversation. Ask permission to put your hands on the person. It s like a blessing. Encourage the person to be still and receive. They may hold out their hands or close their eyes. Pray. Ask the Holy Spirit to come. Be natural. Pray in tongues silently. Keep your eyes open and watch what God is doing. Listen to what God is saying. If you have a prophetic word offer it as a prayer, or an offering to be taken or left. Always build up, comfort and encourage (1 Cor 14:3). People may cry, shake or respond in other ways to what God is doing. If someone falls over help them sit or lie down in a comfortable position. Ensure their dignity is maintained. Ask for help at any time. The ministry team are there to support you and the person you are praying with. PRAYING FOR PHYSICAL HEALING When Jesus healed he spoke to the ailment and commanded it to be healed. Jesus gave us the power and authority to do likewise, but always in his name. AND FINALLY... Not everyone is familiar with ministry and may feel nervous. Help people feel comfortable and safe, and encourage them to reach out to God. Always be sensitive and respectful. Reassure those being prayed for that God has heard and encourage them to expect answers. Ensure people leave feeling loved and valued. Encourage the person to keep receiving prayer during the festival, but to also seek support from their home church. 26

27 T HE GREAT NEW ZEALAND BIBLE PROJECT New Wine is partnering with Bible Society to get Bibles into people s hands. Our vision is to see The Action Bible in the library of all 1900 New Zealand primary schools and now every prison by this time next year. The deal? Select a school, sponsor a Bible, pay $25 (instead of RRP$40), chat delivery options. Simple. Your bonus you get to buy one or more Bibles for yourself at our discounted rate. See the New Wine stall in the Market Place for details. 27

28 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS WHAT! A PROGRAMME? WHY? We love to take time out of our day to focus on God, hear from his word, and worship him. After all, our days are all his, right? Here s what we re on about, and why, and then some quickie questions answered. WORSHIP Our whole lives are to be lived as an offering of worship. And one way to worship is to sing. It s never just singing though. It s honesty, and reflection, and putting things right and loving and being loved and receiving and praise. It s worship. TEACHING God didn t wind up the world and abandon us. He gave us his word to delve into and spend a lifetime pondering - so we can live life best. It s a truth and life thing. It s why we have teaching sessions. MINISTRY To live rich, full lives we need to be empowered and equipped. That s what sets us apart as followers of Christ. Ministry is the place for that. It s safe, authentic and it s all about God with us. WHAT S WITH THIS HAND RAISING BUSINESS? Worship is simply an opportunity to encounter Jesus and it looks as different as every individual that s what God intended. Maybe it s easier for some to close their eyes in worship to focus on Jesus we say do that! Maybe praise overwhelms some and it feels natural to raise our hands to God we say do that! Maybe some want to hold out their hands to receive, or surrender, or weep we say do that. It s all allowed. 28

29 WHAT ABOUT HOLY SPIRIT WEIRDNESS? God loves us so deeply that he wants to draw all people to himself. It s compelling. When we meet the magnetic love of God we are forever changed and that s a massive makeover. When that happens we can laugh, cry, weep, move around, or stand rock solid still. It s all very different and the best thing we can do is be open to the Holy Spirit and simply say yes to him. No hype. No pressure. No drama. A simple yes Lord. WHY IS THE WORSHIP LED ON GUITAR? Got made us in his likeness to be creative geniuses, and our worship reflects that different styles, instruments, preferences, warbles and whistles. God loves it all (as long as we re authentic and it s all about him). With all the options open to us New Wine chooses to keep worship simple and accessible and replicable in your church. You can do the fancy pants stuff when you re home, but we re aiming to stick to what we know and what the majority of you love, with just a little clever clogs stuff thrown in to keep you on your toes. HOW DO THE BAND GET TO BE THE BAND AND THE SPEAKERS, SPEAKERS? New Wine is all about relationship. We love hanging out with you and get excited by God meeting us collectively. It s high stakes though, so we re pretty careful. We place such a high value on relationship we re only going to give the mic to those we trust, are in relationship with, call friend, and those who love Jesus as much as we do. Simply put - it s all about loving God, and loving you lot. 29

32 NEW WINE Championing the local church to live as Jesus in our nation As a network of churches and individuals we are kingdom people who are generous in our love for the vibrancy of the local church, expectant of the power and presence of God and biblically faithful as we together wrestle with God s Word to us now. Our aim is to champion the local church to grow in the Kingdom distinctives of; being greedy for God s presence through worship, holiness and engagement with God; living as Spirit empowered disciples, expectant of the supernatural presence and power of God; engaging in Kingdom centered mission, seeing lives and communities transformed through the gospel; being churches serving churches as we actively bless others with that which we are blessed with. We re most visible as we gather together at; NEW WINE FESTIVALS Life changing events which are fun, celebratory, for all ages, which pursue deeper relationship with God through passionate worship, inspirational teaching and ministry in the power of the Holy Spirit. NEW WINE NETWORK EVENTS Support and encouragement for like-minded leaders through New Wine Leaders Retreats and Leaders Days (contact us for an invitation). REGIONAL EVENTS New Wine training events, worship days, prayer events and Team Together weekends. FAITH SHARING VISITS To capture a common love for God and his work as churches share, model, and serve other churches. 32

33 WE MAKE A LITTLE GO A LONG WAY... This ministry isn t a solo act, it s a community thing. We re simply not designed to run on our own. There are stacks of ways you can support and get involved with the work of New Wine. 1/ PRAY New Wine is not called to events, speakers or ministries. It s called to God and Him alone. Together we re learning what He wants us to do, and figuring out how to stay obedient to that. Please pray with and for us, that we might see His Kingdom come. The New Wine intercessors team are committed to undergirding the ministry in prayer throughout the year. If you d like to join this mailing list intercessors@newwine.org.nz. 2/ SERVE New Wine is a big, dynamic family, full of gifts, talents and even occassionally a prattling Han Solo. The festival simply wouldn't happen without donations of time and expertise from hundreds of volunteers. They do the hard yards in running our venues and keeping us healthy, wealthy and well. Keen to be family? Head to the team section of the website. 3/ GIVE God gifted us in different ways and we recognise generosity and wealth is as much a part of God s plan as programmed ministry. Those able to support New Wine financially are also family. God is calling us to equip saints for ministry; to see leaders lead well, worshippers worship in His presence, and teachers discipled in effectiveness. We need financial resource to rise to this call. Please pray about setting up a regular automatic payment. Contact us for details. 33
