Our unique calling is revealed by God over time, and times of seeking Jesus for clarity. Attending a Focused Living seminar is an excellent way to see what God is revealing to us and to get breakthrough in our thinking.
We are having a Focused Living seminar this weekend on Friday evening and Saturday during the daytime. This workshop is designed to help you reflect on your life and allow the Holy Spirit to show you how God has been working and shaping you over your lifetime.
Even in the painful moments of your life, God was entrusting you with valuable lessons that shape your core values. Whether we realize it or not, the Lord works all things together for our good (Rom. 8:28), for those who are called according to His purpose.
Some of you have gone through this workshop, created your timeline, but never received coaching to help you get the truth that you witnessed deep into your soul. If you attended Focused Living previously, but you don’t feel like you got much out of it , please reach out to us in the office. I would love to partner you with someone who will help coach you as you look back at your timeline and see the themes that God has been weaving through your life. It is my heartfelt wish that you would be aware of how you can live more into your calling and live life to the fullest. I guarantee that with a little coaching, your timeline will help you work toward a more healthy, vibrant life.
Looking Back to Look Forward.
Others have been afraid to create a timeline because it means recalling very painful things in their past and are worried that it will trigger deep pain in them. It is true that there are some tears at the tables as we create timelines, but our aim is not to dwell on the painful events in our past, but to simply acknowledge that they are a part of our story. Keeping a “50,000 foot view” of our life keeps us from reliving our most devastating setbacks.
The focus is on what we have learned and to gain understanding of our past, not to work through our feelings or visit the pain. This does not take the place of counseling; sometimes after people go through this workshop, they choose to begin or go back to therapy because they realize that they have unprocessed pain lingering in the back of their minds.
It can be difficult to figure out how to “examine” your life without some external way to do so. Spending time looking at your personal timeline helps you to have a route to deep thinking, not just about your past, but how it relates to this present moment and your calling into the future.
Focused Living is this weekend, March 11-12.
Friday Evening session is 6pm-9pm.
Saturday session is 9am-4pm.
You can sign up online at our website or click on this link.
I highly encourage you to consider joining us.
My commitment to you as a facilitator:
I will work to create a safe place for you to process. I will not pressure you to share anything you don’t feel comfortable sharing. You may use abbreviations or initials on your timeline that won’t be understood by others.
We believe that this is one of the most successful tools for gaining clarity. More than 20,000 people have gone through this workshop around the globe and have enjoyed breakthrough and clarity as it relates to our calling.
Come and join us!
