Building the Well Starts with Catching the Vision

Building the Well is how Jacob’s Well grows and becomes more and more a place where people meet God.  People are the “bricks.” As we are built into Jacob’s Well we learn just how much God loves us just as we are, and how much more God has in mind for us.  As we are built into Jacob’s Well we contribute and become part of something bigger that matters – and the Well becomes more available to others.

This growth happens in many organic ways as we engage and get to know each other at Jacob's Well.  We also need to be deliberate about our spiritual growth and the growth of our community. Building the Well is about being deliberate.

CATCH the Vision…What is this bus and do I want to get on board? 

When you think you just might want to stop just kicking the tires of church and really give it a ride - you'll want to come to this.  When you’ve gotten some good drinks from the Well and think you actually would like to become a part of it – this is the place.

A retreat-formatted experience. Next date here.

 

DEEPEN the Vision… How do I practice this more day to day?

This is about grappling with the questions we have about spiritual practices like prayer, understanding the Bible and tithing…and the great potential they hold.

We grapple with these things regularly through Sunday worship and GroupLife. And more deliberate “deepen” experiences are in the making. 

 

LIVE the Vision…How do I come more alive through serving? 

"Live" is about exploring the unique way you are made and how fulfilling it is when you start to put it out there to be used!

One big way this happens is simply through trying things!  Our unique "shapes" have been discussed on Sundays and through GroupLife; and additional opportunities are being developed as our Well is building.

 

UNLEASH the Vision…Why is this faith thing becoming so important to me? 

Take ownership of your own story with God so that it (and you) can be fully unleashed!

As a community we are seeking and learning how to help one another uncover, own and articulate our stories. If you’d like to explore and tell your story more intentionally, contact melissa@jacobs-well.net.
