We avoid pain and grief as much as possible. When faced with someone else’s grief, we avoid or offer platitudes. But the book of Lamentations invites us to sit with grief, to enter into the prophetic process of Lament. In this series, we’ll explore how to grieve and how to be a friend to the grieving.

Ultimately, we’ll see how the process of lament invites us to be agents of healing in the larger world.

Serve

Catalyst to the Future

Imaging serving and immediately summon feelings of obligation, of duty. But Paul speaks of Christian service as freedom – a freedom to slavery. Love is the key – when we serve out of love, our service has no bounds. When we serve out of love, no sacrifice is too great to make for the beloved. How do we learn to serve out of our loves, and what will this mean for Catalyst in the next 10 years?

From Series: "Catalyst to the Future"

Catalyst creates spaces where everyone can embrace their God-given calling. How will we love in the next 10 years? How will we grow? How will we serve? Join us as we listen to God's call and follow into the future!
