Jesus Seminar

You are here: Religion >> Jesus Seminar Jesus Seminar: Some Background The Jesus Seminar was originally formed in 1985 under the sponsorship of the Westar Institute to “renew the quest of the historical Jesus.” Thirty scholars participated in the first meeting and approximately 200 people now call themselves “fellows.” The Seminar meets twice a year to debate technical papers that have been prepared and circulated in advance. Each paper typically focuses on the dissection of Biblical passages. At the close of each debate on each paper, the Seminar fellows use colored beads to vote on the “authenticity of Jesus’ words or deeds” covered by the dissected scripture. Jesus Seminar: The Real Goal The goal of the Jesus Seminar is supposedly to “separate historical fact from mythology.” This goal was originally stated in founder Robert Funk’s opening address to the first meeting of 30 “scholars” in Berkeley, California (March 1985): We are about to embark on a momentous enterprise. We are going to inquire simply, rigorously after the voice of Jesus, after what he really said. In this process, we will be asking a question that borders the sacred, that even abuts blasphemy, for many in our society. As a consequence, the course we shall follow may prove hazardous.

Financial Seminars

Financial Seminar Marketing for stockbrokers, financial planners, insurance agents, CPAs, attorneys, real estate agents, mortgage brokers and investment advisors. This site is the single best education you can get on the Internet about holding and conducting financial planning seminars, investment seminars, insurance seminars, estate planning seminars and gaining clients with any type of financial seminar. You can learn the six factors of financial seminar marketing and will see why so many seminars fail. Once you learn the winning formula (the issues about seminar invitations, who to invite, the topics), you will need no other client prospecting to fill your appointment book. If you seek to gather assets, you can easily gain $1 million per financial seminar and do each seminar for under $2,500, total cost. If you seek to sell annuities only, expect to gather $250,000 per seminar. The reason financial seminars are the most effective form of financial advisor marketing is due to the volume of prospects you can meet in 90 minutes. Any type of tax seminar, financial planning seminar, insurance prospecting seminar or investment seminar will work when you have an emotionally-compelling seminar invitation sent to the right targeted audience with a great financial seminar title. Client prospecting does not need to consume 90% of your time. With financial seminars, you will spend 90% of your time in appointments and only 10% of your time doing financial marketing.

Home | Personal Leadership Seminars: Making a World of Difference

If you said ‘yes’ to one or more of the questions above, then you likely know that living and working across cultural differences can be both enormously rewarding and tremendously frustrating—all at the same time. Maybe this is because having some idea of what to do when faced with the unfamiliar (intercultural knowledge) and actually doing it (intercultural competence) are two very different things, especially when our deeply held values or sense of identity are affronted by cultural difference. Personal Leadership offers a methodology specifically oriented to bridging this gap between knowledge and competence. The methodology is called ‘Personal Leadership’ because it is focused on each of us taking leadership of our personal experience, especially when we’re living and working with people and in conditions that we don’t understand. Based on the principles of mindfulness and creativity, the six practices of Personal Leadership help us attend to our automatic ‘default’ reactions; we learn to remain open and inspired, and thus to respond to cultural differences in effective and productive ways, even when we feel personally or professionally challenged.
