TALK IT OVER
A conversation guide for small groups & personal growth
Many of us set goals for work, fitness, finances, but not for the most important parts of our lives: relationships. But what if we were intentional about our relationships the way God calls us to be?
Imagine being surrounded by people who add value to your life. Picture being deeply connected with others, instead of just staying on the surface. Envision having relationships that help you and those around you flourish.
Have you ever felt like you needed a vacation right after finishing a vacation? There’s something about our pace of life (even on our time off!) that doesn’t allow our souls to fully recover. Our longing for productivity and for rest are often at odds with each other. But it’s possible to live a different way.

Feeling Weighed Down?
It’s easy to get distracted, to lose purpose, and give our lives to things that—in the end—will not matter. Most of us say we want our one life to count, but struggle to know how to invest our lives.
What if you could live in a way today that you will be pleased with tomorrow?

How to Stay Healthy in Difficult Times
The pressures of this past year, including a global pandemic, has brought out many hard truths about our character: the good, bad, and ugly. Many of us have experienced loss, division, or perhaps are holding onto unforgiveness. But there is a path towards freedom, by accepting the greatest gift we could ever receive.
It doesn’t take much to see that we live in a world of “more.” We’re driven by an endless hunger that pervades our shopping carts, subscriptions, and our schedules. But it never seems to satisfy.
If you’re tired of feeling overwhelmed, overcrowded, and overspent… there is another way.
