LIFE IN THE RYTHMS
GOD'S DESIGN FOR WORK & FAMILY
Living out the 7 rhythms of a disciple can be challenging.
Life in Rhythm is a 10-week group-discipleship experience designed to help group members integrate the 7 rhythms of a disciple into two of the most significant areas of life–work and relationships. The Life in Rhythm Workbook will help group members experience the abundant life God intends for them in both work and relationships.
