Practical Workshops to Help You Hear God and Grow in the Prophetic

Learn to hear God. Listen more closely. Grow in the prophetic.

I run practical, interactive workshops that help Christians learn to hear God's voice, listen to Him, and discover how what they hear can become a prophetic encouragement to others.

The workshops combine biblical teaching with simple, practical exercises and activations. You don't need previous experience or consider yourself “prophetic” — just come ready to learn and have a go.

Hearing God and Prophecy

You may be familiar with the word prophecy, or you may find it a little intimidating.

At its heart, prophecy is about hearing from God and sharing what you believe He is saying in a way that strengthens, encourages and comforts others.

That's why I often talk about hearing God and listening to God. These are accessible ways to describe something that is at the heart of the prophetic.

You don't have to understand prophecy as something mysterious or complicated. You can learn to listen to God, recognise what you receive, and gradually grow in confidence as you share it with others.

Choose the Workshop That's Right for You

My workshops are designed to help people take practical steps in their relationship with God and their prophetic journey.

Whether you're completely new to this or already have some experience, there's a workshop to help you take your next step.

Hearing God

A practical introduction for beginners

This workshop is designed for people who are new to hearing God or simply want to explore what it means to recognise His voice.

Through biblical teaching, discussion and practical activations, you'll have opportunities to practise listening to God in simple, accessible ways.

No previous experience is required.

Introduction to Prophecy

Move from hearing God to sharing what you hear

If you've begun to learn how to hear God, the next step is discovering how you can share what you believe He is saying with other people.

This practical workshop introduces the gift of prophecy and explores how we can use it to strengthen, encourage and comfort others.

We'll look at biblical foundations, practise receiving prophetic words and learn how to share them appropriately and lovingly.

Listening to God

Go deeper in learning to listen

This workshop builds on the foundations of hearing God and gives you more opportunities to practise listening and explore the different ways God may communicate with us.

We'll look at how we can become more attentive to God, recognise what we receive and grow in confidence as we respond to Him.

Some previous experience of listening to God is helpful, but no formal training is required.

Growing in the Prophetic

Develop confidence and maturity

For those who already have some experience of prophecy, this workshop provides an opportunity to go deeper.

Explore how to develop your prophetic gift, grow in discernment, handle what you receive responsibly and become more confident in ministering prophetically to others.

The content can be adapted according to the experience and needs of your group.

Tim loves God, and is prophetic. His prophecy training is rooted in His love for God, so helps us to grow in the gift of prophecy through focus on and love for the gift-giver.

Consequently, the training is given in an atmosphere which is accepting, loving, empowering, encouraging and fun. All feel welcome to take part and learn, as well as contribute to each other's learning, by giving and receiving prophecy in a safe place.

These Aren't Just Talks

My workshops are designed to be practical.

You'll learn biblical foundations, but you'll also have opportunities to actually practise listening to God and, where appropriate, sharing what you receive.

Depending on the workshop, this might include:

  • Biblical teaching
  • Guided listening exercises
  • Practical activations
  • Words, pictures and impressions
  • Pair and small-group exercises
  • Opportunities to ask questions
  • Time to reflect on what you've learned

The aim isn't simply to understand the subject better. It's to have a go.

A Safe Place to Learn and Practise

Learning to hear God can feel daunting, particularly if you've never done anything like this before.

My workshops are designed to be relaxed, encouraging and practical. You don't need to arrive knowing how to hear God, and you won't be expected to have all the answers.

The aim is to create an environment where people can learn, ask questions, have a go and grow in confidence.

About Tim Bader

Tim Bader is passionate about helping Christians hear God's voice for themselves and others.

He is the creator of the 4 Steps Prophecy School and leads practical workshops designed to help people develop confidence in hearing God and using the gift of prophecy.

His vision is to release people to hear God's voice clearly and accurately, so they can prophesy with confidence.

His workshops and talks provide a biblical foundation and practical "hands-on" experiences for all participants.

My Approach to Prophetic Ministry

Whatever workshop or topic you choose, the same core values underpin my approach to hearing God and the gift of prophecy.

Biblical

Centred in truth

Everything I teach is rooted in the Bible. I want people to grow in the gifts of the Spirit while developing a strong biblical foundation.

Relational

Cooperation with Holy Spirit

Hearing God isn't simply about receiving information from Him. It's about developing a relationship with Jesus. The closer we grow to God, the more we can recognise His voice and respond to what He is saying.

Available

For all believers

Jesus promises that every Christian can hear God's voice. I believe God can speak to every Christian, and that we can all learn to hear His voice and encourage others with what we receive.

The 4 Steps Prophecy School

The workshops give you opportunities to learn and practise, but if you'd like a complete, structured training programme, the 4 Steps Prophecy School takes you further.

You'll explore a simple framework for developing your prophetic gift, combining biblical teaching, practical exercises and activation.

The 4 Steps are:

  • Talk — develop your relationship with God.
  • Tune In — learn to recognise how God may be speaking to you.
  • Translate — understand the words, pictures, feelings and impressions you receive.
  • Tell — share what you've received with wisdom, humility and love.

Looking for a Speaker?

As well as practical workshops, I also speak at churches, conferences and Christian groups on subjects including prophecy, hearing God, the Holy Spirit and spiritual gifts.

If you're looking for a talk, sermon or teaching session rather than a practical workshop, I'd be happy to discuss what you're looking for.

Bring a Workshop to Your Church or Group

Whether you're looking for a gentle introduction to hearing God, want to explore listening to God more deeply, or are ready to develop your church's prophetic ministry, I'd love to discuss what would work best for your group.

Workshops can be adapted to suit your church, small group or Christian organisation, including the experience level and needs of your participants.

Not sure which workshop is right for you? Get in touch, and we can work it out together.
