UpCOMING MDWK LIVE! SERIES

Here's an overview of our upcoming Wednesday night series!

Thief of everything - A 3-week series on comparison

Students can have a tendency to compare themselves to others. The grades they're getting, people they are dating, the friends they have, the clothes they wear, the highlight reel on their social media - it all feels like one long list of what others have that your students just don't. In this series, we'll help our students discover that comparison not only keeps them from liking others, it steals things like joy, peace, and grace from their lives! And the further they move away from comparison and toward contentment, the more they'll be able to love who they are just as they are. 


A 3-week series on comparison starting on September 13

THICKER THAN WATER - 

A 4-WEEK Series on Family

Blood is thicker than water. We’re not sure if that’s scientifically accurate, but we all know the old adage is relationally on point. Our families: We didn’t choose them and we have no control over them. Yet, we all have them and they all look different. No matter what, family seems to have a very real impact on all of us. So, what can we learn from the authors of Scripture about the way we relate to these people we’re uniquely connected to? 


In this series, we’ll discover that our families might be more tied to our own stories than we may have expected. From the way we love people to the way we choose to treat our friends; family can have an impact on so much of who we are. That’s why over the next 4-weeks, we’ll take time to focus on the relationships in our lives that are Thicker Than Water.

  • The grown-up's guide to teenage humans

    In The Grown-Up’s Guide to Teenage Humans, author Josh Shipp shows all of us how to be that caring adult in a teenager’s life. Stressing the need for compassion, trust, and encouragement, he breaks down the phases of a teenage human from sixth to twelfth grade, examining the changes, goals, and mentality of teenagers at each stage.

  •       preparing for the unexpected

    Parenting humans at any phase of life is filled with the unexpected. But as our kids get older, and the stakes get higher, sometimes the unexpected discoveries we make as parents may elicit fear, anger, or confusion as we try to guide our kid or teen toward a positive future. This worksheet is intended to help you reflect and create a plan ahead of time for how you want to respond if you discover something you never expected.

  • BIBLE PROJECT: Read the Bible in one year plan

    This plan takes you through the entire Bible in one year. You'll read two or three chapters a day and sometimes skim through larger portions that contain genealogies and census information. Each day's reading includes a Psalm upon which you can meditate and pray. By the end of the reading plan, you'll have prayed through the book of Psalms two and a half times. Every time you begin reading a new book of the Bible, you'll be directed to a short animated video on the Bible Project website. Theses videos will outline the book's design and overall message to put your reading in context. In addition to these overview videos, you'll find helpful theme videos that explore several topics covered in the reading plan. To download the plan, click here: One_Year_Reading_Plan.pdf
