I am chatting with Caleb Bazyler and Cortlyn Holdren, both 3rd-year medical students, about “even our shorter seasons”. Sometimes it can be easy to reason away the importance of shorter seasons of life or just get so focused on the “what’s next” but as we read throughout scripture, God has purpose in all of our days. We are going to dive deeper into how we can view these from His perspective, love others well, and seek His agenda for today.

How can we look at our shorter seasons differently than with just a “get through” mentality? How can we learn to embrace what God has in today and not just fixate on the future? How can we love others well while also having our ears open for gospel opportunities? How can we walk into gospel conversations without being intimidated?

We are continuing in our series “on mission”…strategically evaluating how every facet of our lives can be used for kingdom purposes and gospel opportunities for His glory.

It can be easy to set our eyes “outside the home” in terms of “doing important things” but how can we be mindful of our primary mission field being first within the walls of our home? How can we practically lean into walking in the Spirit versus the flesh as we parent-what influences the direction we choose? How does Scripture help us navigate through the times when we mess up and feel like a complete failure? What are some “end goals” of parenting and how might this shape how we fill and walk out our days?
