Guided and Fueled - Week 1 - On a Mission
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
-Matthew 5:14-16
We Are Guided By The Holy Spirit - Week 2
We're anchored in scripture and prayer. As we strive to listen, the Holy Spirit empowers us to be more like Christ. Prayer is the heartbeat of everything we do, say, and believe.
"Teach me to do what pleases you, because you are my God. Guide me by your good spirit into good land."
-Psalm 143:10
We Have a Place For You At The Table - Week 3
We come from different backgrounds and varied perspectives. We've prepared a space where you are seen and heard; where you are known and belong. Everyone has a seat at God's table.
"My Father's house has room to spare. If that weren't the case, would I have told you that I'm going to prepare a place for you?"
- John 14:2
We Are Growing Together - Week 4
We connect as a multigenerational community through all phases of life. With love and truth, we support each other in our faith. We don't have life figured out, we learn from each other, and that's why we're better together.
"Instead, by speaking the truth with love, let's grow in every way into Christ, who is the head. The whole body grows from him, as it is joined and held together by all the supporting ligaments. The body makes itself grow in that it builds itself up with love as each one does its part."
-Ephesians 4:15-16
We Are Impacting the World Around Us - Week 5
As Jesus teaches, we intentionally and boldly serve others to show God's love. By doing justice and showing mercy, we humbly care for all people. God's kingdom shines brighter when everyone shares their talents and spiritual gifts.
"In the same way, let your light shine before people, so they can see the good things you do and praise your Father who is in heaven."
- Matthew 5:16
