Resources – You Can Do It! (a.k.a. Launch Class)

The 7 areas of life – which we all desire to excel and have confidence in:

Spiritual: We’ll sometimes refer to a book called With by Skye Jethani. The basic idea is that in our own strength, we’re not likely to experience much success in all 7 areas, but With God we can!
Family: We’ll sometimes refer to a book called The Man of Her Dreams/The Woman of His! by Joel & Kathy Davidson. We’re big on striving to understand marriage and to reduce the divorce rate.
Social: Many great books and resources available in the areas of relationships and our need for community in order to be healthy and effective.
Financial: We’ll sometimes refer to a book called The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey, for helping us understand the importance of sound money management, including getting/staying out of debt.
Career: We’ll sometimes refer to a book called Every Good Endeavour by Tim Keller, to help us understand God’s plan for work – which is to bless us and to use our talents to bless others.
Physical: We’ll sometimes refer to a book called The Daniel Plan by Rick Warren, about God’s vision for our physical health and how it connects to our emotional and spiritual health.
Mental: Putting it all together, ideally with God. Thinking clearly and effectively. Good habits. Teachability. Making good decisions. Positive attitude. Setting and achieving meaningful goals. Others vs self-focused.
