PUT ME IN, COACH!
Week 1 – You're on the Team
Scripture: Ephesians 2:8–10
God didn't just save you from something—He saved you for something. This week we'll discover that every follower of Jesus has a purpose and a place on God's team. You don't have to earn a spot; by God's grace, you're already on the roster. The question is: Are you ready to step onto the field?
Before Sunday, Read: Ephesians 2:1–10
Questions to Consider:
Have I ever thought about my faith as a calling rather than just a belief?
Where might God already be inviting me to serve?
Am I living with purpose, or have I become comfortable on the sidelines?

MAKE ROOM
Week 5 – Make Room for Each Other
Scripture: Romans 15:1–7
As we wrap up our MAKE ROOM series, we'll discover that one of the greatest ways we reflect the heart of Jesus is by making room for one another. In a world that often divides and pushes people away, Christ calls His Church to welcome, encourage, and bear with one another in love.
Because Christ made room for us, we are called to make room for others.
Before Sunday, read: Romans 15:1–7
Questions to Consider:
Who made room for you in your faith journey?
Is there someone God is inviting you to welcome, encourage, or walk alongside?
How can you help Carlisle UMC become a place where everyone experiences the love and welcome of Christ?
We'd love to have you join us this Sunday as we celebrate what God has been teaching us through this series and look ahead to where He is leading us next. And remember—there's always room for one more, so invite a friend to worship with you!

MAKE ROOM
Week 4 – Make Room for the One
Scripture: Luke 15:1–10
Jesus tells two simple stories about a lost sheep and a lost coin, revealing the heart of God for every person. In a world where people can easily feel overlooked or forgotten, Jesus reminds us that every life has immeasurable value.
This Sunday we'll also take time to pray over students, teachers, administrators, school staff, daycare workers, coaches, homeschool families, and college students as they begin a new school year. We hope you'll join us for this special time of worship and blessing.
Before Sunday, read: Luke 15:1–10
Question to consider: Who is the one person God has placed on my heart this week?
