1. About AWAKEN in General
1.1. Vision
1.1.1. My hope is that this will be a yearly Fall series. Fall tends to be the time for many people where life makes a shift in schedule, in rythm. Kids go back to school, students go back to school, the world presses towards the holidays. Summer is done. During this time, it seems to me to be a strategic time to get refocused, refreshed, and re-awakened to the reality, hope, encouragement of who God is.
