Session 6, Part 1 - Living Everyday with Passion & Purpose

"Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile."  Mother Teresa

This week Matthew Kelly talks in depth about the necessity of making a difference in other peoples lives if you want to be happy.  "The greatest power you have is the ability to make a difference in other peoples lives.  Yet it’s the most unemployed ability of humankind."
Challenge of the Week –during the next week each day when you wake ask yourself; “who’s day can I make today”?  After the question is answered in your mind, make it an objective to make that persons day.  Do this for a minimum of seven days and thank God for the opportunity to express that part of you which is him.

Looking forward to seeing you Saturday!

Living Everyday with Passion & Purpose Session 5, Part 2 - November 15, 2014

Examine yourselves to see whether you are living in faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless, of course, you fail the test. 2 Corinthians 13:5

This week Matthew Kelley expands his discussion about the seven levels of intimacy and how we need to apply them them to self and God.

Challenge of the Week – write a list of key relationships in your life and determine the level of these relationships. Is it on the level of cliché, facts, opinions, or is it into hopes and dreams, feelings, needs, faults and fears?  Ascribe a level to each of those relationships and determine where you actually want that relationship to be and how you will change it.
