GPS

Starting a new series on GPS - God Positioning System - in July.  Love this one - we developed this at the staff retreat and really liked it.  We will be using the story of Exodus to illustrate the principles laid out in this series.  Starting with Who Am I? dealing with the starting point in any journey, then Who Is God? dealing with the guide we will use on the journey, to The Destination dealing with where the journey is taking us or our purpose, then Prayer dealing with our connection to the GPS and finally Listening dealing with receiving the signal from the GPS.  Looking forward to this one - hope you can join us!

Father

Working through a Father series this month celebrating Fathers Day.  Talking about Father God, our example and perfect role model - Father Guardian, the role of the father in the family and any leaders role - Father Community, the fathers role in community - and Father Child, the fathers role with his children.  We have gone through a time in our society of the male role being looked down upon despite it truly being a critical role for our society.  This has nothing to do with male dominance rather everything to do with the interdependence of the genders.  Hopefully we will come through this series with the fathers and men in the group feeling empowered to use the tools being given to them and all to recognize how important it is to our society to get this right.
