Illuminate - GAC

Hello everyone. I hope everyone had a great week. Needed to give everyone a heads up about tomorrow, Mother's Day. First, don't forget to wish your moms happy Mother's Day. Second, I am teaching in Ignite tomorrow and there is no coverage for illuminate so I guess you have two options. 1) you can sleep in 2) or you can join the ignite group tomorrow. Have a great weekend and hope to see you tomorrow sometime.

Hey illuminate. I trust your week is going well so far. The question to ponder this week is:

How might you develop your ability to encourage yourself in the Lord more effectively?

Passage to remember: “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.””Joshua‬ ‭1:9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Hey illuminate team. This past Sunday we discussed about the storms of life and what it means from a biblical perspective to be resilient.

Two questions to consider this week:
1. What role have problems played in your growth in the past?
2. How would you describe your resilience?

Looking forward to this Sunday. We will continue our discussion about biblical resilience and what that looks like. Have a great week.

Hello illuminate team. This past Sunday we talked about gifts. Each of us has been given a gift from God.
Just as you can’t imagine not opening a Christmas gift, we should make sure we open the gifts we have been given by God and use them.

The question for this week: Where are you most in danger of becoming a boat potato?

Hope you are getting out of the boat and using the gifts God has given you. Have a great week. Look forward to seeing you this Sunday.

Take care,
Chip

Hey everyone. Trust this finds all of you doing well and having a great week. This past Sunday we covered the first part of chapter 1 of our book “If you want to walk on water you’ve got to get out of the boat”.
Our topic of discussion was focused around fear and faith. At the end of our discussion I asked two questions to reflect on throughout this week. They are:
1. How can we know what our boat is? Ask ourselves what is it that produces fear in me? In what area of our lives are we shrinking back from fully & courageously trusting God?
2. Where are you in relation to Jesus these days?
A. Huddled in the boat with a life preserver and the seat belt on
B. One leg in and one leg out
C. I’m walking on water and loving it
D. I’m out of the boat but the wind looks pretty bad.

Take time to think about these questions this week. I’m looking forward already to our discussion this Sunday. Take care.
