Next Steps

Live the abundant life
God created you for.

Too often people settle for a life that has happened to them, instead of a life that God has for them. Jesus wants us to live in and from a relationship with Him at the center. He tells us that we are to build on His words so that when we are tested by the storms of life, we remain standing. A life that is fulfilling, abundant and meaningful starts with Jesus taking control over every area of our life. Without Him at the center, we spin our wheels trying to make things work. From our heart, to our mind, to our actions, to the way we treat people, and to the way we handle our finances, God wants us to live in a way that honors and pleases Him.

John 10:10 - "I came that you would have abundant life..."
