You Can Call Me Abe

Abram and Sarai set out for an unknown destination and after a lifetime of wondering, found themselves and God’s purpose for their lives. The process of discovering our identity in Christ is a life-long pursuit that requires faith in God through all the challenges of life. Join us for week 6 of What’s in a Name as we discuss God's purpose for our lives.
Passage
Genesis 17
Principle
Process: God does ##in## you what He wants to do ##through## you.
Caution: ##Delays## in God’s promise never justify ##detours## from God’s plan
Outcome: The image of God revealed through ##His## ##people##
Practice
Prayerfully answer these questions:
- What is/has God done in you that He can now do through you?
- Are you experiencing a delay in God’s promises?
- Have you detoured from God’s plan?
- Is your life a reflection of Jesus?
