Built for Significance
Built for Significance: Helping Men Align with God’s Mission for Their Life and Family is a three-session men’s retreat that helps men answer the question, “Why am I here?” so that they can articulate and act upon God’s mission for their lives.
This will be accomplished by:
- Studying biblical examples of men who answered God’s call,
- Examining common dimensions of God’s call on all Christ followers, and
- Helping each man identify his Acts 1:8 assignment.
