Global Challenges

Experience changes people’s perspectives. These Global Challenges plans gets the whole church, a small group, or your family (since churches are now in our homes!) involved mid-week across the street and around the world. A Global Challenge could run the same time as a sermon series plan and no one even has to leave the house. Or a small-group or family could choose to do a challenge while reading and discussing the book Across the Street and Around the World.
