What We Do

Workshops

Due to staff and funding limitations, we are not able to offer workshops outside the United States. Internationals, please contact Exodus Global Alliance for help in your area.

We offer two workshops for local churches or other Christian organizations. They teach a basic Biblical understanding of sexuality and do not have a particular denominational slant. Both are most effectively done in a half-day format, Saturday from 9:00 AM until 2:30 PM being the best time. However, they can also be presented in a shorter, ninety-minute introductory form for larger conferences or gatherings.

Our basic Sexual Purity Workshop contrasts the Biblical worldview of sexuality with cultural images taken from media, film and advertising. It can include a time of worship, repentance, healing and recommitment as well. Appropriate for older teens and adults, it's a great introduction for churches just beginning to deal with sexuality issues. Available ONLY in PowerPoint format.

"Compassion without Compromise" defines and describes the six foundational steps to start transformational ministries for the sexually confused, broken and sinful. Utilizing video, small group exercises, lecture/discussion and optional PowerPoint, attendees are challenged to consider the joys and commitments of this kind of ministry and to develop a preliminary plan for implementation in the local church. 

Here's what some participants have said about a recent workshop:

  • "I realized my attitudes toward gay and lesbians needed to change. After the workshop, I was far more confident - and compassionate - talking to a same-sex couple in my church." 

  • "Very well organized. Good steps for showing love and understanding."

  • "Good motivation for churches."

  • "It made me wrestle with how I will present sexual purity information to my youth."

  • "Informative. Not pretentious, but very realistic. Thank you for resources and guidance."

  • "You opened my eyes with the statistics about sexual immorality."

  • "You wisely directed us to the Holy Spirit for the specifics of ministry."

  • "I wish it could be longer. There was so much to learn!"

  • "The resources are God-sent. Thank you!"

  • "Great fellowship, too."

Currently, there are no set fees for the workshops, but large groups are expected to provide an honorarium and local churches are expected to provide a love offering or commitment to regular ministry support. Host churches or groups must also reimburse all travel expenses - mileage and airfare, housing and meals. Call (608-325-5712) or email the national office to schedule a workshop or for more information.
