A GOD-LIVED LIFE STEWARTSHIP CHALLENGE- Beginning August 13th, 2023
What does a God-lived life look like? It looks like Jesus.
God became man and lived life in our place. Christ lived the perfect God-Lived life. Living as Christian, a like Christ, we have the privilege of demonstrating what God looks like in how we live our lives, in living lives that show God.
Begininning August 13th, for the next 4 months, God’s Word will be challenging us, and we’ll be challenging one another to live a God-lived life and that encompasses everything. We will be talking about a life of being a disciple, a life lived for others, a life of hospitality, and a life lived shrewdly.
Each month at the kickoff service, we will be introduced to a challenge that we then prayerfully commit to carrying out the rest of the month. These challenges ask us-people who are moved by the grace of God and Jesus’ life and death in our place- to commit to acting on the encouragements to put the Word into practice.
How will we commit to the challenges? As individuals, we are going to fill out a different challenge card each month. This will help to involve our entire family of faith in the challenges and help us encourage each other in the challenges.
We’ll distribute the card for the month at the kickoff services (August 13th, Sept. 10th, Oct, 22nd, and Nov. 19th) and you can drop your completed card in the plate or email a picture of it to the church office. (patty@abidinggrace.com). We’ll also link a digital version of the card on this site as the time comes.
May God bless us as we grow in his Word and in our lives of living it!
