Happy New Year! We can't wait to get started on a new year of ministry with you and your family
not yet: A 4-WEEK STUDY FROM THE OLD & NEW TESTAMENTS ON IDENTITY
SERIES OVERVIEW:
Does life ever feel like a never-ending waiting game? Like you’re always waiting to get a little older, to gain a little more freedom, or to find a little more clarity about your future? When you think about the person you’re becoming and what your future holds, do you ever just want to skip ahead in your story to see how it all turns out, who you’ll become, what you’ll do, or what kind of difference you’ll make? In this four-week series, we’ll talk about all the questions, fear, frustration, and excitement that thinking about our futures can bring. As we explore passages from Ecclesiastes, Revelation, and more, we’ll discover four truths about what God has in store for us: we’re all a work in progress, your purpose is to be like Jesus, God’s plans for you are good, and your next step is to get closer to God.

RESOURCE OF THE MONTH
Scaffolding is an essential piece of any large construction project. Within an intentional structure that supports the work and the workers for a while, and then can be easily removed when it's time for the building to stand on its own — the project could never be completed. Check out THIS AMAZING BOOK for some ideas as to how parenting may have more in common with scaffolding than you think.
