In today's episode Pastor Clark Frailey takes us on a journey of self-discovery and spiritual planning. Drawing from his personal experiences in Colorado's unpredictable wilderness, Pastor Clark illuminates how life can often feel uncertain and how finding one's path—spiritually and otherwise—requires intentional effort and planning. Pastor Clark emphasizes the importance of assessing where we currently stand in our spiritual journey as a means to flourish in faith. He introduces the concept of the Church Pulse Assessment—a powerful tool designed to measure and guide spiritual growth, drawing on research from Harvard and the Barna Group. This tool will provide valuable insights into both individual spiritual health and the collective growth of our church community. We aim to help you discover a vibrant and thriving faith life, making plans that align with God's foundational steps for our lives. Whether you're seeking personal growth or looking to contribute to our community's spiritual well-being, this episode is your starting point for a transformative journey. --- 📅 Join us live on Sundays at 11 AM - both in person and online. 📌 Follow us on social media: Facebook: https://facebook.com/coffeecreekchurch Instagram: https://instagram.com/coffeecreek.church App: https://coffeecreek.churchcenter.com/ ================= 00:00 Lost in Snowstorm Hike 04:56 Measuring Spiritual and Human Flourishing 09:01 Planning Journeys Without GPS 11:57 Divine Plans vs. Human Intentions 15:25 Trusting God as Our Guide 17:41 "Measuring Spiritual Growth" 21:47 "Church Pulse Assessment Access" 22:30 Prayer for Growth and Reflection Colorado, mud season, Grand County, melting, Grand Lake, snowstorm, GPS, spiritual growth, path home, charting a course, spiritual health, optimism, fear, panic, human flourishing, character, contentment, finances, relationships, purpose, agricultural metaphors, spiritual formation, evaluating progress, planning process, guide, unknown future, abundant life, spiritual pulse, church pulse assessment, spiritual thriving.
