Our youth need parents and others in the faith family to hear and respond to the desires of their hearts. They need those who can look beyond where they are right now and see them the way God does… And He wants to pour into them through you! We have a responsibility to show up as intentional examples to prepare our youth so they may become all God has destined them to be. Learn how to invest in the next generation in part two of Family on Purpose!

Jesus lived a mission-centered life and left a lasting impact in all of His relationships. He wants us to follow His lead, especially when it comes to our families. Family is a beautiful gift from God, and He has a special plan for yours! Even if you didn’t inherit a good family story, it’s never too late to change the legacy. Let’s commit to doing family on purpose—all for God’s glory—starting today.

As followers of Jesus, we have been given open access to God. That means that we are not limited by the standards and customs of this world. He’s the One who hung the stars in the sky, who breathed you into being. There is nothing our God cannot do, and He dwells within us. Life with Him is full of adventure! Sometimes we just need to shift our perspective. How do we break free of the limits we’ve been operating under? Find out in Breaking Limits.

You exist to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. That’s called purpose! Your calling is how you uniquely use your gifts, passions and story in different seasons of life. It is doing what God has called you to do in your work, family, school, relationships, and more as you navigate different life stages. God wants to launch you into your calling, to partner with you to release them into the world for His glory!

How do we begin to cultivate our unique God-given qualities so that He may be glorified wherever we go? Find out in part four of True North.

As Christ’s followers, we’re not just living life but sharing a message. Jesus was bold. When it comes to being like Him, it’s our responsibility to help people make the connection between the life we live and the God we serve. Jesus has called us to reconcile people to Him and not repel them from Him. They won’t know the Good News of His love, peace, and joy unless we tell them. God will be with us as we go. So, let’s do it!

Before Jesus left the earth, He set an expectation for His followers to live according to His example. When we represent Christ well, we give others the opportunity to experience His true nature and draw closer to Him. Compassion is one of the characteristics that attracts people to God. It is looking beyond our own needs to see the needs of others, learning to value them above ourselves. Let’s begin to engage the world with hearts of compassion and demonstrate the love of the Father to everyone we encounter.

We are living in a world where a lot of people feel lonely and unwanted, wondering if they even matter. But we have the opportunity to Be Like Jesus, to meet people where they are and let them know they are seen and valued. Jesus noticed the people who others missed, those who were often pushed aside. The enemy’s goal is to discourage and distract us from paying attention to what truly matters, but there are small things we can do to reflect the light of our Savior. You never know how one encounter can shift someone’s life. Find out how to grow in your attentiveness in part three of our current series.

As followers of Jesus, we are called to live and love like Him. What exactly does it mean to model our lives after His? One characteristic that Jesus constantly demonstrated was God’s kindness. Regardless of how people treated Him, He was intentional about doing good to others. Showing kindness is a key element to reflecting Jesus’ character to the world around us.
