The Momentus Discovery Seminar
The Momentus Discovery Seminar is a
three day seminar designed to produce insight on how to love
and live more effectively. Originally developed by Daniel
(Dan) Tocchini, the founder of the Association for Christian
Character Development (ACCD).
Discovery
is a response to the cry for a radical change.
Is Today
The Information Age, Or The Isolation Age?We
live in a time of unprecedented expansion of knowledge. The
depth and breadth, as well as the rapid access and retrieval,
of human knowledge would stun our forebears. We are all permanently
embedded in this flow of information, yet we are still left
with Jesus' question, "For what is a man advantaged,
if he gain the whole world, and lose himself?"
The Information Age is at the same time
the Isolation Age. We are more isolated and out-of-sync than
ever before. We have in many ways lost ourselves and each
other. Many people sense a powerlessness over their lives,
their relationships, themselves. Many complain of not being
worthy and lacking significance. Many feel disconnected from
themselves and others - even those closest to them. Often,
as a result of our disconnection, isolation, and powerlessness,
we turn to various diversions to anesthetize the discomforts
of life. The ways we numb out are legion: materialism, workaholism,
addictions, TV, video games; the list is as endless as people
are unique.
Whether there is a direct connection between
the expansion of knowledge and the increasing human disconnection
is a topic for others. The essential question, the burning
question is what can we do to become reconnected with what's
important, how can we relate to others in life the way we
know it could be?
Even among Christians, similar trends toward
disconnection and isolation are apparent. We are filled with
more biblical knowledge than we are living day-to-day. Like
the rich man who came to Jesus seeking eternal life in Matthew
19, we know the answers to the questions of faith, but struggle
to answer with our whole lives. How can what we know become
what we live?
Something's Got To ChangeThis
discrepancy between knowledge and what is lived calls for
a transformational breakthrough - more knowledge is not the
answer, we've all tried that many times. We need to transform
the very way we relate to God, others, and ourselves. We must
take a radical leap to a new competency in relationship, rather
than just an incremental step from the way we related in the
past.
Discovery is an invitation to journey beyond
your current limitations of what is possible for you - past
the restraints your existing assumptions place on your relationships.
This journey will bring you to the place where you will be
able to break through these assumptions and impact your relationships
in ways you know God desires for you.

Fruit from The Momentus Discovery SeminarThe
disciplines required in examining ourselves transform the
foundations of our spiritual life- the way we think, relate,
feel, and behave. At this core level we do not find formulas
or dogma, we find the mind of God. The Divine process of transformation
that Discovery facilitates is an ongoing act of preparing
for God's love in you as well as the unique continuing expression
of your love to others. The results of this process include:
· Clarifying your vision for the
future and prioritizing your commitments to better serve your
calling. You will develop your ability to take action in ways
that contribute to the vision and destiny God has revealed
through your longings to love and be loved.
· Deepening the fulfillment you experience
in the most fundamental aspects of life-especially in daily
activities such as working with your spouse, building a career,
educating your children, and making wise and diligent choices
when it comes to relating to friends and family. You will
begin to experience making the difference your life was destined
to make.
· Breaking through the cultural assumptions,
opinion' theory, and thinking that is designed to make you
believe that you are a product of your past or environment.
Discovery is a call to a future compelled by imagination and
grounded in what God has revealed through your gifts and most
intimate longings.
· Developing ways of thinking that
compel you to relate to mystery, risk, and change as opportunities
instead of problems. You will practice valuable disciplines
that will support you in resolving conflict and breakdown
with hope, grace, and mercy.
· Engaging your daily commitments
with a confidence that the Spirit of God is with you. You
will experience an anticipation and sense of adventure when
facing the challenges and struggles that naturally arise out
of ordering the chaos of everyday life as well as taking on
the risks and responsibilities of loving another person.
