Week 2 Day 7 What do you press on towards this year?

The Race (Philippians 3:12-14)
On TED talks, Rick Warren talks about about a life of purpose.

Where are you at and then taking small steps towards your goals. Narrowing the scope of our goals can be a challenge in itself.

Sometimes cultural norms determine the expectations we have of ourselves and others.


How do we listen to God as individuals and as a God-fearing community?

Being part of TSCF, helps narrow the scope a bit, we share in the broad aims of Global Reach, Undivided Life, True Witness and Deep Thought. Consider as students how we press on towards these goals. Anna has designed a picture of the aims using the words of the book and movie Divergent.


The decisions, we make helps us narrow down the question. The questions that we have can give us direction and goals to answer them (Often this is the start of a Phd research paper). Passion for causes can direct our lives. God speaks to us in different ways and equips us for work He wants us to do. He shows and directs how it is going to happen. Some are forced through life circumstances to narrow their goals like Debbie Millman, who shares the process of how she discovered her purpose here.

Nigel Pollock, National Director of TSCF, encourages us to Run the Good Race here.
