This Commons Class will be led by Jon Thompson, Senior Pastor of Sanctus Church. Jon will share an in-depth look at the necessity of spiritual rhythms for sermon prep, the power of stage presence, and the effective skills needed to engage your audience with the life changing truth of the gospel.

This three-session conversation will give you a front row seat as Jon shares what he has learned about everything from sermon prep strategies, delivery styles, to the art of storytelling in conveying biblical truth to the wide range of people God has called you to influence and lead.

What is a Commons Class?

Commons Classes are designed to provide a range of learning opportunities that are relevant to pastors and church leaders and cover a wide range of topics that are essential for the growth of churches, including leadership, management, evangelism, discipleship, and theological depth.

Each cohort runs for a period of 6-12 weeks, composed of 2-4 sessions that are spaced 1-4 weeks apart. During these sessions, the expert guest speaker leads the participants through the cohort, providing them with practical insights, skills, and knowledge on the topic. In between sessions, participants will have the opportunity to interact with each other in a private affinity group where they will have the chance to discuss questions, ideas, and experiences connected to the topic.
