First & Best

JAN.4 – JAN.18

If God is First & Best, then I give Him my First & Best time, talent, and treasure.

Action Step: Complete a time, talent, treasure card and put in God Can.

Expectation for Group Leaders:

  • Share how they’re personally giving God their first and best in each area and encourage group members to do the same. The group members will bring their Time, Talent, Treasure cards to group time and pray over them before placing them in the God Can.

Hunting WLVS

JAN.25 – FEB.15

If God is First & Best, I find freedom by conquering wounds, lies, vows, and strongholds through Christ.

Action Step: Perform a Freedom Ceremony / Wolf Hunt.

Expectation for Group Leaders:

  • Model transparency by sharing a Wound, Lie, Vow, or Stronghold they’ve identified and the truth they’re replacing it with. Each group participates in a Freedom Ceremony or Wolf Hunt together.

Additional Info: Participate in a Freedom Ceremony / Wolf Hunt at the end of the series.
We will identify and kill the WLVS in your life. We will go WOLF HUNTING with a friend, our family or our group.

Identity – Wear it

FEB.22 – MARCH.29

If God is First & Best, then my faith becomes rooted (firmly planted) in my identity in Christ.

Action Step: Write on our hand/arm/wrist in permanent marker our Identity every Sunday.

Expectation for Group Leaders:

  • Encourage group members to wear an identity “tattoo”. Your identity on your arm will be the ticket into our next group meeting. Groups share and pray over them together.

Relationships – Families Built to Last

APRIL.12 – MAY.10

If God is First & Best, then all my relationships reflect that fact starting at home and moving outward.

Action Step: Create a Family Faith Brand.

Expectation for Group Leaders:

  • Group Leaders hold their groups accountable to making a Spiritual Family Brand and host a night to share and pray over them together.

Additional Info: Each home will create a family brand that symbolizes and communicates the truths in which our home is built. This is a visible, personal reminder of your love for God—something that reflects Deuteronomy 6 and can be displayed in your home. The goal is that this brand will be in a place you’ll see every day—as a reminder that your home is being built on Him.

Spirit – Walking in the Spirit

MAY.17 – JUNE.14

If God is First & Best, then I desire to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh.

Action Step: Track interactions with the Holy Spirit daily in a log book for 5 weeks.

Expectation for Group Leaders:

  • Group Leaders hold their groups accountable to writing in their Spirit Log Book. The Leader goes first by sharing stories weekly about what they are hearing from the Lord.

  • Groups share and pray over them together. Set aside time to go through a listening prayer (a resource will be provided) and write what we hear from the Lord about our group. We will provide a sticker that goes in our log book that includes prompts specifically about our group and only groups get them.

Check out our new optional Serve Group resource that includes best practices, devotional content, discussion questions and prayer prompts designed specifically for Serve Groups to participate in and grow through the Discipleship Journey.
