Frequently Asked Questions
It’s ideal for anyone interested in personal and ministry growth in APEST. Whether you’re new to APEST or seeking to deepen your practice, you’ll find value here.
The Co-Lab is designed to be accessible to beginners while also offering deep insights for those already familiar with APEST. However, a basic knowledge of APEST is required.
Each session is a mix of networking, collaborative learning, and expert coaching. You’ll connect with peers, share resources and experiences, ask questions, and receive personalized feedback from Tim.
Tim will lead the majority of the Co-Lab sessions. However, occassionally we will create space for other APEST practitioners to make presentations or facilitate discission around key areas of their expertise to enrich the Co-Lab experience.
Although the Co-Lab is a group setting, there’s a structured element for individuals in each gathering. Participants are encouraged to share challenges and ask questions, and Tim offers personalized feedback and coaching to each person as much as the session’s time and structure allow.
But keep in mind that there’s a valuable learning opportunity in this group dynamic. Even when Tim is addressing a question from another participant, his feedback often resonates with common challenges or interests of other individuals, providing learning moments for everyone.
This format enhances the collective learning experience, ensuring everyone benefits from each interaction. For those seeking more in-depth, one-on-one coaching or consulting, separate individual sessions can be arranged.
The sessions are interactive with breakout sessions, group discussions, opportunities for Q&A, live activities, and dedicated networking time in each meeting. This allows participants to connect, share insights, and potentially collaborate on projects or initiatives. We encourage active participation to enhance the learning experience.
We encourage sharing your experiences, resources, and insights during the meetings. Active participation helps enrich the learning experience for everyone.

Each Co-Lab membership is intended for individual use to ensure a personalized experience. We encourage everyone interested to sign up individually.
We understand that schedules can be busy, and you might not be able to attend every live session. However, to maintain the privacy and comfort of all participants, sessions are not recorded.
But don’t worry! If you miss a session, we encourage you to connect with other members in the Co-Lab. They can help catch you up on what was discussed, share notes, and collaborate on any exercises or activities. This approach also fosters stronger community bonds and collaborative learning within the Co-Lab.
The APEST Co-Lab’s content not only reflects the multi-faceted nature of APEST, it’s also participant-driven. APEST intersects with personal growth, team dynamics, group development, and organizational design, as well as various aspects of theology and Scripture. In our sessions, we explore these diverse aspects, ensuring that there’s always something new and relevant for every participant.
To keep the content fresh and aligned with the needs and interests of our members, we actively solicit input from participants about the topics they’re most interested in discussing. This approach allows us to tailor the Co-Lab sessions to the evolving interests and challenges faced by the group.
Whether it’s deepening personal understanding, enhancing group or team dynamics, embedding APEST in organizational strategies, or situating APEST within the larger context of Ephesians and the rest of Scripture, the nature and scope of the content and conversations will adjust to explore the way these aspects overlap and inform each other.
As a result, the Co-Lab can remain continually relevant and engaging, providing long-term value to both new and seasoned participants.
The Co-Lab is not just a series of meetings; it’s a continuous journey of growth with others who are realizing the full potential of APEST in their context. We provide ongoing support, resources, and a community that nurtures long-term development in APEST paradigms and practices, ensuring we all continue to advance along God’s develomental path outlined for us in Christ.
Sessions typically last about 45 -60 minutes, ensuring they are comprehensive yet concise enough to fit into your schedule.
The Co-Lab meets twice a month on second and third Thursdays at 12 noon EST, with occasional alternative scheduling to accommodate holidays.
