LifeThrive's Spiritual Formations curriculum is a unique approach to understanding how believers are created and equipped by God for personal service in God's Kingdom.
Who can benefit from Spiritual Formations?
- Believers who have not yet found a "place" of service within a ministry.
- New members in a congregation/ministry
- New believers
The Problem:
People often jump into ministries because they get asked, not because it is their calling or gifting.
A recent Christianity Today article noted that turnover is a significant issue with some churches turning over 70% in 3 to 5 years.
A study conducted by Fuller Theological illustrates that between 30 to 40% of seminary graduates leave the ministry in approximately five years
The Solution:
The most critical factor ANY believer must understand is their uniqueness before God. This will help:
- Eliminate a need to compare themselves to others
- Identify key traits and attributes that exist for engaging and serving other people
- Clarify their spiritual gifting for serving the Body of Christ
In the past, the Spiritual Formations content has been delivered in person by a LifeThrive trainer through one-day seminars or three 2-hour weekly group sessions. Also, a few local pastors have been trained and certified to provide the materials in live regional settings.
Our goal is to make the content more accessible to believers everywhere by converting the material to on-demand electronic video delivery. This will allow us to scale and exponentially expand our reach while drastically reducing the cost of content delivery.
