The Individual Digital Encounter will be available here each week beginning Monday, Sept. 9
Often we think about calling as something that happens to other “special” people. Yet, God calls every one of us at all ages in multiple ways. God’s callings are all around us, but we don’t always see them. This fall, we will be taking a journey as a whole church find God’s callings all around us. Join us as we connect God’s story with the stories we live each day.
This church-wide emphasis is based on the book The Stories We Live: Finding God’s Calling All around Us by Kathleen A. Cahalan who rejuvenates and transforms vocation from a static concept to a living, dynamic reality of calling. Incorporating biblical texts, her own experience, and the personal stories of others, Cahalan discusses how each of us is called by God, to follow, as we are, from grief, for service, in suffering, through others, within God. Join us as we discover an exciting new vocabulary and find a fresh vision for God’s calling in our lives.
Click here to purchase the book and/or join in the church-wide discussion. The following is a list of the adult faith groups everyone is invited to join. The weekly theme will be introduced in worship each week. In addition to these adult groups, children nursery through school age will be introduced to God’s calling in their weekly worship encounters. The youth will have an immersion experience on retreat in October. Families will have resources available to incorporate faith formation at home. There will also be a fully online option for individuals to work through on their own time at their own pace. Sign up now to find meaning and hope in your vocation!
