STREAMS RESOURCES
Session One: The Prayer-Filled Life
Discovering ways to keep the heart and mind focused on God and find rest in him. It stresses the value of silence, solitude, and prayer as ways we engage with God’s presence, whether we take a silent walk in the early morning, take the bus to work, or wash dishes while the kids nap.
Session Two: The Integrity-Filled Life
Discovering ways that lead to an inner re-formation of our heart. “Holiness” may sound negative today, but the Greek sense of virtue simply means “to function well.” A virtuous life isn’t about rules or earning merit; it’s about letting heaven take root within us—attending to the heart and living from what flows naturally inside.
Session Three: The Spirit-Filled Life
Discovering ways to draw on the Holy Spirit for strength and encouragement. This stream focuses on the power of God’s Spirit moving in and through us. Just as a car requires fuel to run, and our bodies require food for survival, so our souls rely upon the Spirit of God for spiritual energy.
Session Four: The Compassion-Filled Life
Discovering ways to extend compassion, justice and peace into every sphere of life. The Social Justice stream emphasises justice, compassion, and peace - but its aim is not action alone. True compassion flows from a sincere heart, shaped by God’s love and open to change.
Session Five: The Word-Filled Life
Discovering ways to share and be the Good News of Jesus Christ. The evangel - the 'good news' - is God’s great message to humanity: that all can be redeemed and restored to its intended design. This is the message embodied in Jesus himself, rooted in the word of God, and ultimately expressed through the lives of those who follow Christ.
Session Six: The Presence-Filled Life
Discovering ways to connect faith with our everyday life. This stream focuses on the relationship between the invisible spirit and physical reality, helping us to see God’s divine presence in the material world in which we live. God manifests himself in his creation, even in the midst of mundane activities, whenever and wherever we acknowledge God.
