6.01 – Stories – Hungry: Learning to trust means that at some point we didn’t know how to trust. This teaching explores how we respond to God’s testing and how it shapes our development into mature children of God.
6.02 – Stories – Charge: This teaching explores God’s design for our lives, which is to love. His call to the priesthood is one meant for everyone, as people who bring God’s blessing to the world around us.
6.03 – Stories – Crash: This teaching begins the process of exploring God’s law. It takes a look at the tension that exists between following the law and the freedom that it restricts.
6.04 – Stories – Break: This teaching explores the purpose of the law. As we live life we encounter moments when the law exposes how we break ourselves. Although it isn’t fun, it helps us realize where we are destroying our own lives so that we can seek redemption and restoration.
6.05 – Stories – Love: This teaching explores the entire law given to the people, called the Mitzvoth, and the value it has to call us into integrity with the self.
6.06 – Stories – Superstar: This teaching explores the rhythm of life and the reminder to find rest. God’s call is part of a careful reminder to when we are breaking ourselves.
6.07 – Work – Answers: This teaching continues the dialog on work and explores the distinction between the right answer and the real answer. Central to the journey is finding the space to be honest about what is really going on and getting to the real answer.
6.08 – Stories – Sanctuary: This teaching explores the idea that our hearts are sanctuaries for God to reside in. God wants to live among us and in relationship with us.
6.09 – Stories – True: This teaching explores the delicate tension that exists in God’s discipline. What is often seen as anger is actually love in defense of the Kingdom and for our good.
6.10 – Stories – Credit: This teaching explores the tension in the journey to abandon progress. The desert can often feel like a place where God seems absent and the temptation is to return to our idols.
6.11 – Stories – Ask: This teaching explores what happens when we ask. In a world filled with hurting people it is easy to assume that God doesn’t have time for us. God is interested in hearing what is on our hearts. Are we willing to ask Him to reveal himself?
