Chim-giân 22:24

We all struggle with stress from time to time. Whether is is caused by work, parenting, or busy seasons, we must learn to avoid the extremes and to rethink the way we respond to it.

Let’s be honest, many of us feel lonely. We spend more time on social media than interacting with actual people. This creates in us a sense of longing that technology can not fix. We need community; in fact, good relationships are the driving force behind godly people. How do we build community in a time when isolation is the new normal? This five-day plan will inspire you to discover new ways to form connections that will impact your life for the better.

Our relationships shape our lives more than we often realize. Some people draw us closer to wisdom, strengthen our faith, and encourage good choices. Others, sometimes quietly, can lead us in directions that damage us. Proverbs 13:20-21 invites us to look honestly at the influences around us. In this plan, you will discover how to discern the voices surrounding you, seek relationships that lift you up, set healthy boundaries, and become an influence that reflects God.

God’s ultimate goal for you is maturity. Even though His process of purging out wrong attitudes, outlooks, motives, and behaviors is not always easy to go through, the result will be an honorable life He can use to accomplish His good purposes. Pastor Bayless Conley discusses the kind of heart attitudes that will make you someone capable of having an eternal impact in this world for God’s Kingdom.
