STRETCH: A 4-WEEK SERIES FROM ROMANS ON SPIRITUAL HABITS
WEEK 2 BIG IDEA: YOU CAN STRETCH YOUR FAITH BY STARTING SOMETHING NEW.

SERIES OVERVIEW:

If your faith were a muscle, how flexible would it be? Could it stretch to your knees? Your shins? Your toes? Or are you not sure you even have any faith to stretch in the first place? Just like your body, if you want a faith that is strong, growing, and capable of carrying you through difficult challenges, you’re going to need to stretch it. It might be fun. It might be challenging. But it will definitely be worthwhile. In this series, we’ll discover four ways we can stretch our faith from Paul, the author of the book of Romans and a man whose life was completely transformed by Jesus. Thanks to Paul’s words, we know we can stretch our faith my making a commitment, by starting something new, and by letting something go. We can even stretch our faith when we feel like we’ve failed.

It’s not easy to start a new habit (or break an old one) but thankfully, there are some tools that help make it easier. If you or the students you lead need a little help starting a new healthy habit, CHECK OUT THE APP STREAKS, set a new daily habit goal, and don’t break your streak!

At least once this month, choose a volunteer to celebrate. Add their picture and a few sentences about what makes them awesome!
