The theme this year will be Equipped
Our Lord has given us a task; but, are we equipped to work toward that goal? There is nothing more defeating than having a job to do, a desire to do it, but not having the tools, resources, or knowledge needed to accomplish the task. So many Christ-followers can identify with Paul when he cries out in frustration in Romans 7. “For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out.”
Without being equipped to fulfill our holy calling, we often feel defeated and fall into disobedience. This is not what God wants! He has given us victory and freedom. However, if we equip ourselves with the tools He has provided, we can grow in holiness and obedience. In our large group sessions the biblical truths will be laid for us. We will be convicted and inspired to pursue our calling as Christ-followers. In small group studies we will take those biblical truths and ask the questions needed to apply them specifically to our lives.
Theme Verses:
Hebrews 5:8-14 & Matthew 28:18-20
Own Your Faith, Know Your Faith, Grow Your Faith.
