This week, Eric reminded us that the journey of following Jesus is both impossible and essential. Our church’s Growth Path—Endearing, Attending, Belonging, and Growing—describes the part we can do, while trusting God to do what only He can. We shine light in our community, create a church unchurched people love to attend, engage in meaningful community, and embrace lifelong transformation. Ultimately, the call is to become like Jesus, for others. It’s a path marked by trust, repentance, and dependence on God’s Spirit, who alone transforms us into Christ’s image.
