Redirecting Route - Podcast - Week Three
Week 3 Conversation Guide: https://www.churchnativity.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/SG-Conversation-Guide-Redirecting-Route-Week-Three.pdf
Join us for Week 3 of our small group series “Redirecting Route.” Fall is a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. School is back in session. There’s new football season. The air is a little crisper, the leaves more colorful.
With fresh starts come expectations. And expectations can be good as they fill us with a sense of anticipation. But expectations can also become a burden or set us up for disappointment. Unmet expectations can even take a heavy emotional toll. And that is no way to live.
In this series we’ll invite you to honestly evaluate your expectations, and more fully embrace the hope our faith assures us is ours as Christ followers. -

Small Group Message | An Order from Above | Week 5
Week 5 Conversation Guide: https://www.churchnativity.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/SG-Conversation-Guide-Celebrate-What-Matters-Week-Five.pdf
Join us for Week 5 of our small group series “An Order from Above.” Late Spring is traditionally a season of celebration.
We celebrate First Communions, Confirmations, Graduations, year end school celebrations too. Springtime is a favored time for Weddings and Baptisms, and often retirements are planned for this season, bringing more celebrations.
Celebration feeds a need in our soul. We need to celebrate what is important and what matters. The act of celebrating reinforces what we value and hold dear.
In this same way, every year in late Spring the Church celebrates four important feasts on four consecutive Sundays. They remind us of key truths of our faith and what is most important. In this series, we’ll look at these feasts and why they matter. -
