LIVING YOUR STRENGTHS
Small, prayerful groups are lead through a well-honed process to help participants name their top five strengths and then use them to improve their personal and spiritual life. Over the course of five sessions signature strengths are identified and thoroughly examined in light of life experience and scripture. The group leads to prayerful answers to the questions: “Lord, who am I? How am I made in your image as a uniquely gifted and talented individual like no other? With insight into myself, how are you calling me to do a fuller life?
