Description: The author teaches through five sessions (designed for about 60 minutes per session) about how the participant can move toward becoming God's best version of himself or herself in four specific areas: mind, time, relationships, and experiences. Faith development and spiritual growth can often seem difficult or intimidating, but Orttberg's humor and innovative thinking will leave the participant challenged, inspired, and hopeful about the honest faith development happening in the participant, his or her small group or Sunday School class, and his or her church.
The five sessions include: "Discovering the Spirit; Renewing My Mind; Redeeming MyTime; Deepening My Relationships; Transforming My Experiences". The sessions help the participants understand that as God redeems her and restores her, she/he becomes more of him/herself. The participant becomes more the person God had in mind when he first thought up the participant. God is not interested in mass-producing each person, but rather handcrafting each person to be God's best version of himself or herself. The author teaches what it means to be God's best version of you through a powerful visual experience and story of a vintage motorcycle restoration. You'll find that God has a plan to use and restore every part of your life and he's been working on it all along.
The Curriculum kit contains: 1 hardcover book; 1 participant's guide; 1 DVD with additonal resources; five video sessions; promotional trailers and resources; and 1 "getting started" guide. Sermon resources are also available online at www.themeiwanttobe.com.
This study has been designed to be suitable for a church-wide experience.
Age Groups: Young Adult; Adult (30-55); Adult (55+)
