What's Happenin' @ Forward Mid-Week



Below is a brief summary of what talked about this week. Most of the time we teach through a series for several weeks at a time that way students that miss can get caught back up quickly, and so we can dissect a topic more fully than just a one night deal. Use the overview and questions for both you and your teen to answer and have a dialog that continues outside the church walls and into your homes. Use this opportunity to see what God is teaching your student and also allow your student to see what God is teaching/taught you.


Current Series:








Kairos is about time. Not the tick-tock kind of time we are used to living in. Kairos is the beautiful kind of time where God breaks in and changes everything. These are moments when something special happens. They are moments that interrupt our status quo. They are moments when the trajectory of our journeys change forever.

When God breaks in, we must take the change He creates — whatever it may be. We must accept both the work of Christ and the way of Christ. We must trust in what God is doing instead of trying to do it ourselves. And then we must step out in faith and believe that God’s goodness will come in time.
In this series, we will set aside tick-tock time to engage God intentionally and expect him to break into our lives in timeless ways. We’ll be inspired and disturbed. We’ll be encouraged and challenged.  We’ll be loved and changed. The moment is upon us. Don’t you think it’s about time?



This Week's Recap:


Week # 1 (02.10.2016): Time Out

Bottom Line: Evaluate Everything by Focusing on the ONLY thing




In the opening session of Kairos, we saw that God is ready to break into our lives. Every moment is an opportunity to observe where God is breaking into your life. The question is whether we will embrace how God breaks in. Do we just want a vending-machine God, or do we want God to be our provision, our bread of life? That’s the question we must answer as we evaluate everything by focusing on the only thing.


Intentional Interaction:

What does it look like to make Jesus the only thing?

What has to stop in our lives in order for you to do this?

What has to start?
