Becoming Whole

Each of us is looking for relationships that help us feel seen and known and loved. A spiritual friendship can be a safe place to bring all of who you are, to receive understanding and support during life’s struggles, and to enjoy the goodness of life as well. Join Kit and friends today as they talk about the gift of spiritual friendship.

Highlights:
"…Spiritual friendship begins in God, continues in God, and is perfected in God…"

"…this is not all of who you are, but where you are today…"

Questions:
Do you have an ache for a friendship with someone like this?

Is the Lord calling you to take the first step?

Would you be willing to pray for these friends to come close?

Often we don’t understand how our past impacts our lives and struggles and challenges that we’re currently having. Spending time with God, getting to know and understand our stories, can help us be aware of and heal from past experiences.

Highlights:
“what kinds of things might have happened, that have created some of the ways they think about themselves or life…”

“our stories, each one is unique and has a purpose”

“we don’t know the questions to ask, the doors to stop at that are significant…”

Questions:
Do you believe your story matters?

What is the biggest barrier to sharing your story?

Have you brought your full story to the Lord?
