Unstuck -Week 3

Life Group family & friends.

Week 3 of the UnStuck series featured Rich Stearns, President of World Vision.  He made several fantastic points, but one stood out to me.  He asked if we define our life by our circumstances or by our calling.
What a great challenge or focus question.  If our life is defined by circumstances, we will be happy when things are going well and then ride the roller coaster yearly, monthly, weekly, or even daily.  But when we are defined by our calling, we will walk in confidence and joy.  Since our Creator is all knowing, we can trust Him to see the entire movie of our life and not just the clip we are in today, good or bad.

How is your life defined?  How is your marriage defined?  Your circumstances will always change.  Your God will always remain.

On Saturday, we wrap up the UnStuck series.  See you in Life Group.

Be intentional.

Weekly Challenge -Unstuck


Life Group Family & Friends:

We will start the class earlier this Saturday which will enable us to have more discussion time.  Nobody should feel that input is not wanted or that they will get kicked out of Life Group for sharing!  We strive to be an Ephesians 4 type of Life Group.  The equipping, learning, teaching, and maturing should be a great excitement to you.  Check out these verses from Ephesians chapter 4 and join our Life Group as we grow together...

2 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.

12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. 15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.

32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.



We began our 4-week video series called Unstuck.  Week 1 was Francis Chan.  Week 2 will be Lisa Harper.  Week 3 is Rich Stearns.  Week 4 is Mark Batterson.


As a member of Lake Pointe, you have been provided free access to the RightNow video library.


Link to RightNow Media

My challenge to you this week is to peruse the library, pick one video to watch (by yourself, as a couple, as a family, at dinner, etc.) and provide a quick review to our LG on Saturday.

Be intentional.
