This semester, Annex invites you to learn with us the Practices of Jesus Followers. Together each week or two we’ll learn a practice that aims to bring us closer to the presence of God, to be restored by his love and transformed into his likeness.
This is an invitation to joy, not a burden to crush you. We’re all managing to keep afloat in our own ways right now. This semester long journey is not meant to be a burden but bring joy. We expect that most of us will choose to really engage with some but not all of the practices. Ask the Lord which ones have your name on them and which ones don’t. Some of you may have the bandwidth to try your hand at all of them. Some of you may spend the whole semester focusing on one of them. There is flexibility within each practice too.
You won’t be alone. We’ll be learning and practicing together. We’ll begin each practice by being introduced to it at Tuesday Night Annex, and when appropriate, trying them together for the first time. Some of the practices we’ll be able to sync up and do them at the same time so we can feel like we’re not alone and share what we’ve learned together. If you’re in a Core Group or Small Group, you’ll have the opportunity to share the practice in those communities as well.
How to participate: Contact an Annex staff member here if you'd like to receive the package of tangible invitations at your door or in the mail, and/or simply click on the images below. Here's the week-by-week calendar. Each practice has an introduction and explanation.
Our staff is here to support you! If you have any questions or want to share what you’ve been learning, our team is always here to connect. We’re also here to support you financially as well. There may be resources that could help you grow in particular practice and we’d like to make that possible with our Grants for Practices of Jesus Followers.
With Love, Dave and the Annex Team
