Throughout 2023 we’ll be focusing on three ideas: Up, In, and Out. Each of these themes will bring a realization of who we are to be as followers of Jesus in 2023.
Up is a focus on our relationship with God. We’ll look at some of the spiritual disciplines and grow in our relationship as sons and daughters of God. We’ll journey through a bible reading plan together. Spend time in prayer together. And we’ll even encourage one another to stretch a little in their spiritual growth.
In focuses on our relationships with others in our circle. These are the relationships we already have with people who are similarly minded. People who think like us, act like us and do similar things as we do. As collectively we dig into scripture in the up areas of life we’ll grow closer as brothers and sisters in Christ.
Out focuses on all the people around us who Jesus loves but with whom we don’t really spend a lot of time. These can be neighbors and coworkers but also people in far away places. We’ll spend time looking at how we can better serve the world with the love and grace of God in practical ways.
