Covenant Life – Josias Hansen
Faith, just like life, was never meant to be experienced alone. We need one another for encouragement and accountability. Yet, for many Christians today, personal encouragement and accountability is easily lost.

Sharing and Stewardship – Josias Hansen
As kingdom people, we are not to see our time and resources as our own to be spent on anything we please. Instead, we believe everything belongs to God, and we are called to be faithful stewards of everything at our disposal. Therefore, instead of using our time and resources to build our own individual kingdoms, God calls us to seek the benefit of God’s kingdom first, trusting that our own needs will also be met in the process.

Blessing – Terri Churchill
Terri begins to unpack elements of our Third Way Covenant that contribute to a healthy environment where the Kingdom of God grows and flourishes among us. ‘Blessing’ is the first covenant commitment we’re examining. How does the practice of blessing grow the Kingdom of God, and how can we resist the dominant culture characterized by the very opposite of blessing: cursing?
