When Strivings Cease: Replacing the Gospel of Self-Improvement with the Gospel of Life Transforming Grace

Every Wed, Sep 27 – Nov 1 @ 6:30-7:45p
Facilitator: Jakora Snow, College and Young Adults Director
Room 211

This study is for strivers, for those of us exhausted by the "You are enough–just improve yourself" narrative. The truth is, we were never enough, and we never will be. It's time to lay down the wearying pursuit of self-betterment and measuring ourselves against popular opinion. We're looking for the answer in the enduring gift of amazing grace. Only when we receive that gift will our striving cease!

This course is for adults of all ages & stages, and may be particularly helpful for people who find themselves striving to be loved. Join us in discovering what it looks like to let the grace of God transform our hearts, minds, and everyday life.
