Discover Your Soul
Stir Pack 1
Stir Pack One consists of six experiences that help participants discover the presence of their soul by bubbling up emotions, questions and longings that reveal our true spiritual nature. These include our sense of justice, wondering if we have a purpose and our longing to know we are not alone.
Connect to God
Stir Pack 2
Stir Pack Two introduces several people from the past and present who demonstrate how their connection with God leads to full life. Participants will develop a desire to connect with God, who fulfils our every longing.
Encounter Jesus
Stir Pack 3
Stir Pack Three introduces Jesus, who was fully one with God. By diving directly into the gospel accounts, participants will be drawn to the person of Jesus and his relationship with God. They will see that wherever Jesus went, true life followed.
Live Full Life
Stir Pack 4
Stir Pack Four addresses the reality of our sin, our separation from God, Jesus’ sacrificial death and resurrection and our inability to re-establish the connection with God on our own. Participants will be invited to follow Jesus as their Leader and Forgiver.
