A Message From Dr. Wiles
We will begin the year with a church-wide retreat on our campus that begins on Friday evening and culminates on Sunday morning in both morning worship services. There will be food, fellowship, worship, and guided conversations as we familiarize ourselves with the concepts that lead to flourishing.
I will be preaching on Sunday morning. Rev. Scott Heare, Resident Fellow for the Global Human Flourishing Study at Baylor University, will be our Guest Speaker for our Adult gatherings for the weekend. We will sharing practical means of assessing flourishing in our own individual lives as well as plans for future growth towards flourishing in all areas of our lives.
6 Domains of Flourishing
Our subjective experiences and evaluations about just how happy and satisfied we think we are.
The traits and values that make us who we are and guiding principles in how we act towards ourselves and others.
Generally being free from or successfully dealing with the various mental and physical ailments that may come our way throughout our lives.
Reflecting on our friendships, family, and relationships and whether they are as satisfying as we would want them to be.
How we view our individual purpose within the world as well as our greater sense of the meaning of it all.
Ensuring that we need not worry about safety, food, housing, or meeting our monthly living expenses.
