The 2025 annual Summit Woods Preaching and Teaching Workshop will begin on Friday August 22, 6pm-9pm and conclude on Saturday August 23, 8:30am-5pm.

This is a FREE workshop providing practical instruction on how to study a passage of Scripture with the aim of teaching it in a small group setting and/or preaching it to a congregation at large. Whether you desire to grow as a discipler who opens the Bible with confidence in what it says, long to be better equipped to teach your children scripture, hope to strengthen your preaching and sermon preparation process, desire to sharpen your skills as a Sunday School teacher for adults or children, wish to be better prepared to lead family worship in your home, or just want to get more out of your devotional studies, this workshop is for you!

Pastor Bret Capranica will be leading the main sessions and teaching the participants in light of his sermon study process. Other SWBC elders, staff, and members will assist at the tables throughout each session. We welcome anyone to attend who wants to learn to study and communicate God's Word effectively (men and women). 

There will be three specific tracks from which you can choose in your registration. They are: 1) Bible Study 2) Small Group Teaching and 3) Preaching.

As an added element this year for those who wish to grow in their ability to preach, post workshop assignments will be given including and opportunity to have a sermon evaluated by SWBC elders/staff.

Please invite any who may be interested or benefit from your church or the surrounding area. The workshop is FREE, but space is limited. Please prioritize attending the full workshop if you plan to attend. Materials will be sent out in advance so that participants can be best prepared for the sessions.

The worskshop will be held in the Fellowship Hall of Summit Woods Baptist Church. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided on Saturday along with some light snacks throughout.
