As we move into our 40s and 50s many of us are facing some new and different stages of life and there is no better way to do this than with others in community. My wife Elsa and I are starting a brand-new group Round 2: Now What?
“We are a group learning to navigate through middle adulthood together as the challenges of the season we are in adjust. Significant life changes are occurring all around us, and we want to use topical studies to learn how God’s word can guide us through these changes. We’ll be starting with a study on the Beatitudes – First Things First: Navigating Our Challenging Times Through the Words of Jesus.
The Beatitudes are Jesus cutting to the quick, laying it all out there in its fullness with no pretext or pretense for us to hear, embrace, experience, and follow. They are not just godly parameters by which to pattern your life. They are his heart, his character, and his personality. It is through these relational characteristics, and the principles they develop, that he is inviting us to live our lives.
The group will begin meeting Tuesday nights in September 2024 at the home of Brad and Elsa Tempia near Cottonwood Creek. Children are welcome; however childcare will not be provided.” If you aren’t actually in your 40s or 50s but this group sounds intriguing to you, we’d love to have you join us!
