You were created by God and for God. This DVD study and participant guide will give you the opportunity to discuss the implications and applications of living the life God created you to live. Everything is Possible with God: Understanding the Six Phases of FAITH by Rick Warren Would you like your faith to be stronger? Faith, according to Pastor Rick Warren, is like a muscle. It needs to be exercised and developed. And God uses a predictable pattern and process to build your faith. Once you understand these six phases, you can cooperate with God in the process of strengthening your faith and building your character. Better Together: What on Earth are WE Here For? by Rick Warren From the beginning, God planned for us to do his will alongside others. Why? Because we're better together! In six dynamic sessions, Rick Warren offers biblical examples and practical applications to help you fulfill five purposes God has for you---reaching out, belonging, growing, serving, and worshiping. You'll learn how God uses others for your spiritual growth!
