Intentional Living Workshop
What if there was a God-centered alternative to New Year’s goals and resolutions? Imagine if, rather than asking God to bless your plans, you pray and discern God’s desires and purpose for you? During the course of this three-session workshop, you will be focusing on:
- Aligning Your Values with Christ’s Values
- Reviewing Your Year with Christ
- Hearing Christ's call and Living with Christ
Because the sessions build upon each other, attendance at all three is highly encouraged. Participants can anticipate spending approximately two hours per week of prayerful reflection time in between sessions. Registration is now open; or contact
