Moving from Fear to Full Engagement

God designed our bodies to use fear to escape danger. God didn’t design our bodies to live in a constant state of fear. Living in fear, with our bodies surging with powerful hormones, all day long is killing us.

What is the solution?

Rare Leadership Online Conference

A leader’s #1 priority is to create a healthy company culture. However, the numbers reveal that most struggle with this critical role. It’s no wonder only 1 out of 4 teams will reach their goals this year. So what’s the secret to a healthy workplace? What do successful companies do differently? Surprisingly, the best way to build a healthy culture is developing emotionally intelligent, mature relationships. If you want a blueprint that shows you the skills you need to attract, retain, and lead the best teams, then Rare Leadership has the answers.

This is The Life Model

This 4-hour online seminar took a closer look at the Life Model to equip you with tools for transformation. Hundreds of people joined us for our 1-hour webinar, Introduction to the Life Model: THREE Proven Practices for Transformation. This 4-hour online seminar took a closer and deeper look at the Life Model. We all need clear guidance to practices that will bring true transformation. Life Model Works has crafted advanced tools from the Bible and brain science for the express purpose of transformation into Christlikeness. These three proven practices are relational brain skills, awareness of God’s interactive presence, and multigenerational community.

Thinking With God

If you hope to experience a more loving, joyful and sustainable interactive relationship with God and others; if you desire an empowering shift in your true identity in Christ and to be progressively conformed to the image of Jesus Christ; if you want to learn from an expert who has engaged these subjects for many years in the trenches of real-life struggles; then you need to learn to think with God.

Healing "Church Hurt" For All in 2024

Marlene Allen, Executive Director of Life Model Works, and Chris Caputo, Co-Founder of Hesed Discipleship Network, will have a conversation together around the subject of “Church Hurt” and discuss helpful insights and potential solutions to partner with Jesus to see His healing and transformation for Church communities in 2024 and beyond.

This presentation is designed to provide value for ministry leaders, and for anyone else interested in learning more about the following subjects:

Understand three core challenges ministry leaders and everyday believers must address together to see thriving disciples and Churches emerge.

Explore seven dynamics of an emotionally healthy spiritual family culture.

Identify one major leadership dynamic shift that can have a substantial positive impact and close the “Church hurt” gap.

As stories of Churches closing continue to increase, and leaders are anxious and overwhelmed, hear the stories of Jesus creating new collaborations and expressions of ministry to help Church communities survive and thrive in a post-COVID world.

The Reason You're Stuck & the Surprising Fix

Two reasons life isn’t working for many people…First, it is a real challenge to find authentic, spiritual community.

This is why millions of people are stuck in their relationship with God and others. God transforms people as they engage in authentic, spiritual communities (a.k.a. small groups).

We cannot become our best selves and live from the heart Jesus gave us apart from genuine relationships within a spiritual community.

Which leads us to the second reason people are stuck.

God transforms people as they engage in authentic, spiritual communities (a.k.a. small groups),
when those groups are structured properly. Properly structured small groups are grace-based. They are not informationally driven, rather, they are relationally centered. In this setting, we develop deep, enduring relationships (a.k.a. attachments) that have the greatest impact on our identity and behaviors.

This webinar with Ray Woolridge and Ed Khouri will help you get unstuck, engage in authentic, spiritual community that is grace-based, and find a sustainable path forward for transformation.

Finding Clarity & Peace through the Immanuel Lifestyle

Turn confusion into clarity and anxiety into peace with the Immanuel Lifestyle!

This webinar will introduce you to a proven approach to life that connects you with God throughout your day so you find clarity, peace, and joy despite life’s circumstances. Many are experiencing healing for their wounded heart.

You will hear from ministry leaders who are integrating this approach and the transformation it is bringing to people just like you.

Bonus: An Immanuel Lifestyle exercise will take place live during the webinar focused on helping you gain clarity and peace as you learn to quiet yourself, listen for God’s voice, discern what He is saying, and interact with Him! Join Life Model Works Executive Director Ray Woolridge for a fascinating discussion with Margaret Webb of Alive & Well, John & Sungshim Loppnow, co-authors of Joyful Journey. also joining the conversation is Brent McIntosh, author of The Five Minute Jesus Journal.

The Immanuel Lifestyle is one of the pillars of the Life Model, an advanced and proven set of relational and neurotheological practices that transform. This webinar is brought to you by Life Model Works, a nonprofit organization guiding the development and application of the Life Model.

The Key to Lasting Relationships

We were created for life-giving, joy-filled relationships that last. Too often, we have missed the key element that makes relationships stick: its grace! Grace is profoundly relational, yet, in so many of our relationships we find grace is absent. In part, this is because we have failed to understand grace is more than forgiveness of sins and “unmerited favor”. There is something more profound we must understand.

Getting Fear out of My Life

God designed our bodies to escape danger. When our amygdala senses a threat, our bodies surge with powerful hormones which help us move like Superman: “Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound! Look, up in the Sky! It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Superman!” Haha. Right, we all want to escape danger and overcome obstacles like Superman. Here’s the problem, the fuel of fear is also toxic. Many of us live our lives in fear… There is a better way: the fuel of JOY!

Bringing Your Full Brain to Church

Learn from Michel Hendricks as he shares his story as a pastor of discipleship who realized he did not understand how people change. This began a journey that continued as Michel co-authored a book with Dr. Jim Wilder, The Other Half of Church, which Life Model Works is using to help churches nationwide! Michel Hendricks is Director of Life Model Consulting. He works directly with existing churches, ministries, and networks, to help them live out the Life Model. He will uncover half-brained solutions to whole-brain problems; discipleship practices that work, and those that don’t; how relational consulting works better than just reading a book and trying to apply it.

This webinar is FREE and available for viewing on-demand!

Introduction to The Life Model

If you’ve had questions – What is the Life Model? Why should I learn it? How do I put it into practice? – we have answers! The Life Model can build more peace and joy in your life, help when your relationships cause you more pain than joy, and improve your ability to hear God’s voice with more clarity. Dr. Jim Wilder (Co-creator of the Life Model and Founder of Life Model Works), Ray Woolridge (Executive Director of Life Model Works), Amy Brown (Trainer with Life Model Works, Thrive Today, and Alive & Well) team up to explain into the three pillars, practices, and outcomes of the Life Model.
