The Next Five Years | Who we Are

We've all heard the adage, "It's easy to overestimate what you can accomplish in one year, and even easier to underestimate what you can do in five."

At Northeast, want to be obedient in becoming who we believe the Lord is calling us to be as a church. In this introductory message, Tyler gives an overview of the ten "aspirational vision targets" that we are strategizing towards for the next five years. It's our hope that five years from now, we can look back and see how God has moved in our church and grown us together in these key areas.

Over the course of this series, we will dive deep into five of the ten targets, highlighting one each week.

This week, we're focusing on the first target: "We want to be a congregation who knows, honors, and reads the Bible."

Raising Future Adults | Intentional Parenting

Life is full of firsts. Naturally, parenting is too. From your baby's first steps across the living room to their first steps out into the world as an adult, your children will experience many things for the very first time.

As a parent, you have a role in how these "firsts" contribute to the formation of your child. The experiences they have are largely out of your control, but you can help form them as they slowly become adults who experience life for themselves.

Today, we're thinking through how you can contribute to your child's spiritual formation by discipling them through all the "firsts" along the way.

Vision, Values, and Plan | Intentional Parenting

If you want to raise kids that are leaders of consequence in the kingdom of God, you need a plan. But before you make a plan, you need to catch a vision.

This week of Intentional Parenting is super practical. Whether you still have kids in your home or not, you'll learn how to catch a vision for intentional parenting, identify your values, and make a plan to help you stay on track.

We've created four worksheets to help you work through this process. Download them through the link below:

Intentional Parenting | Introduction

There's no such thing as the perfect parent, but it is possible and necessary to be an intentional one. So how is it done? How can you bring intentionality to your children's spiritual development with the same passion and devotion you bring to the rest of their development?

We're spending the next five weeks exploring these questions together.

Even if you aren't a parent, this series is sure to provide practical tools for your spiritual formation.

Praying for the Lost | Summer of Prayer

Guest Speaker, Mark Moore, concludes our Summer of Prayer series. Praying for the lost always has a cost. If you're a "sideline" Christian, the cost to your comfort, relationships, and time will be too high. Mark walks through four different types of prayers Jesus prayed, and poses a challenge to all who claim to follow Jesus: are you willing to follow in Jesus' footsteps and pay the cost to reach the lost?
