A 5 Week Discovery Experience
Overview
Made For This is a five-week relational discovery experience designed to help people understand how God has uniquely wired them and discern how He might be inviting them to use who they are to love others and participate in His Kingdom.
A small group gathers for two hours each week to explore their personality, spiritual gifts, passions, experiences, and burdens. Through guided activities, honest conversation, reflection, and listening to the Holy Spirit, participants discover how these pieces come together and what they reveal about how God has uniquely made them to live and love.
5 Weeks At A Glance
-
We explore our personality—how we naturally think, relate, respond, and what drives us—and begin to see how God has uniquely shaped us.
-
We explore our spiritual gifts—how God has uniquely equipped us to serve others—and begin to see where those gifts may naturally come alive.
-
We explore our passions—the people, needs, and causes we care deeply about—and begin to see what these desires might reveal about how God has shaped us.
-
We explore the people, problems, and places that capture our attention and draw us in—and begin to see where God may be stirring our compassion.
-
We bring our discoveries together—personality, gifts, passions, and what draws us—and begin to see a clearer picture of how God may be inviting us to live and love.
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Frequently asked questions
-
Each gathering follows a simple rhythm: we’ll check in on what we’ve been discovering and experiencing during the past week, work through that week’s activity and discuss it together, and finish with a prompt to carry into the week ahead.
-
The activities are designed to give us a starting point for conversation and reflection, not to provide definitive answers. We’ll explore what resonates, what doesn’t, and what we might be noticing as we listen to one another and to the Holy Spirit.
-
Because we often see things in ourselves that others cannot—and miss things that others can see clearly. The group creates space to be known, share honestly, listen well, and help one another recognize things we might not discover on our own.
-
We’re asking everyone to attend at least four of the five weeks, come with honesty and curiosity, and be willing both to share and to listen. Because meaningful discovery requires vulnerability, we also ask everyone to treat what others share with care and confidentiality.
-
Throughout the five weeks, your discoveries will come together in a Calling Map. It isn’t meant to give you one definitive answer about your calling, but to help you see patterns and connections and leave with a clearer picture of how God has shaped you and where He may be inviting you to live and love.
