You’ve heard it before. That one student who goes on a mission trip/youth group retreat/conference and makes a declaration to change the world. Sometimes it happens. But too often, after a few months, that same student is indistinguishable from the crowd. They were so caught up in the emotion of the moment and were ready to do something big.
Sound familiar? (Maybe too familiar?)

We all want to do something BIG for God, but following Christ is more about the small steps we make every day, steps of obedience, steps in relationship with Him. I mean, we’ve all made resolutions and set goals, but too often we fall short of what we expected to accomplish. Unfortunately it’s often the same when we try to become the Christian we really believe God has called us to be.

How many times do we fall short of the goal and become increasingly discouraged?

We’ve called this series ForwardMotion because the Christian life is more about the steps we take, not the giant leaps.
In this series, we want you to learn that following Jesus is more about the small steps we make every day, not about the huge leaps of faith that we think we need to make.
We want to set goals, but more importantly, take time to determine the first step and then make it.
And at the end of the month, the series will end with a celebration like you’ve never seen in StudentLIFE!

Curious yet? Join us tomorrow @ 9:30 as we start making ForwardMotion…
