BLESS. We've been blessed to be a blessing. Someone once said, "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep in order to gain that which he cannot lose." That is a powerful truth to not only consider, but also embrace as a lifestyle. What does this look like in our everyday lives? What if we embrace an eternal mindset in all we said and did? How can we seize every day and every relationship with an eye toward not only this life, but also the life to come? Join us tomorrow for a life-changing discussion on this topic as we consider our last section of the Growth Track: Bless. Looking forward to worshiping with you!

BECOME. Not only have you been created to become complete in your relationship with God, you have also been uniquely designed by Him to serve His purposes by using the gift(s) He's given to you. We become more satisfied and content when we understand we exist to serve God and others from our talents. Self-absorption and self-service only lead to the deterioration and, ultimately, emptiness of our souls. Who are you in God? How has He uniquely designed you? For what eternal purpose have you been created? Come discover more as we discuss spiritual gifts and your particular role in God's Kingdom.

BECOME. We're all becoming someone. Most people don't know who they must become and therefore end up pursuing a course of becoming that's unfulfilling and ultimately empty. Unless we understand that we must mature into who God has designed and destined us to be, we will be dissatisfied and discouraged in who we become. Who does God want us to become? What does the path to this satisfying identity look like? What are the resources given to us to become all that God wants us to become? Join us for a deep dive into this topic as we navigate God's Word together.

BELONG. No know and be known. To accept and be accepted. To love and be loved. The closest we can get to this is in the local church. Yes, the church is imperfect. But, there is no other community that God stands with and spiritually supports more than the family known as the church. Have you discovered this truly genuine community of Jesus followers? Have you experienced the joy of connection? Have you felt the pain of hurt? What plan does God have in it all? Join us for an in-depth look at this topic.

POWER. While the world flexes its power, there exists no power greater than God's power. Yes, God's power is mightily seen all AROUND us, but it is most dramatically and magnificently experienced when it happens WITHIN the life of an individual surrendered to Him. How does God's power come to us? In what ways does God's power change us and give us strength to live daily? How is God's power different than the power the world offers? Join us for a life-changing discussion of this topic as we dig into Acts 19:8-20.

VITALITY. Ah, to have the strength to face each day with hope. Yet, many of us feel a lack of power to persevere on a regular basis. Day to day struggles continue to rob us of joy and discourage our hearts of the things we know we need to pursue yet lack the continual strength to do so. Where does this inner strength come from? How is it made available to us? What daily disciplines must we embrace to stay connected to this power? What does God promise us if we depend upon Him? Join us for a deeper dive into this topic as we look at Acts 18:23-19:7.

PROMISES. There are no guarantees in life except the ones that come from God. Those who are unfazed and unshaken in this world are the ones who bank of the promises of Him Who exists beyond this world. Our encouragement and peace is rooted in God's character and His promises. Where is your heart today? Is your trust in God? Are your circumstances weighing down on you? Do you need to be reminded of the mysterious ways that God works in your life? Join us for a deep dive into this topic as we look at Acts 18:11-22.

HOPE. Most of humanity is familiar with the kind of hope that disappoints. Whether it be job, marriage, health, or friendships, we're all too connected to life's disappointments. What if there existed a hope that doesn't disappoint? What if there was a certainty of hope (present and future) that is constant and changeless for our lives that would bring us joy continuously? This is the message of the Risen Jesus. This is the message of Easter. Join us for more tomorrow as we celebrate the love of God.

ENCOURAGEMENT. All of us need powerful moments to lift us from the pit of discouragement. We yearn for times of comfort that let our hearts and minds know that everything is going to be fine. As humans, we can be agents of encouragement, but oftentimes, only scratch the surface of what we really need. This is where God comes in. He is able to work encouragement into our lives in a powerful and sustaining way. How does He do this? What does this encouragement look like? What specifically does He say or do to lift up our souls? Join us as we look at Acts 18:9-11.

DISCOURAGEMENT. We've all experienced the weight of disappointment, rejection, failure, etc. Oftentimes we wonder how long the difficult season will last and, more importantly, what is necessary to move us from discouragement to encouragement. What do we seek while we're discouraged? How does God want to encourage us during such times of "funk" in our lives? What does hope and help look like in the midst of our discouragement? Join us for an honest and encouraging look at this topic as we dig into Acts 18:1-8.
