  5. Discipling/mentoring is not about enabling people

    Discipling/mentoring is not about enabling people

    Being a pastor (discipling, mentoring, guiding) is not about saving people. It's about guiding those who choose to be guided. Not everyone actually wants to heal or find solutions.   Go to www.theforged.org/subscribe to check out our newsletter. and, if you're looking for The Forged's social media, here it is: Instagram: @become_the_forged Facebook: www.facebook.com/becomeforged Youtube: www.youtube.com/@becometheforged

  7. It's not about the past or future: it's about living out the journey

    May 11

    It's not about the past or future: it's about living out the journey

    We spend a lot of time and energy focusing on things outside of our control. We consume ourselves with the past and the future. We believe that "next week" or "next year", we'll really live. And we tell ourselves that for a lifetime. It's time to embrace the journey and to find our satisfaction from it.   Go to www.theforged.org/subscribe to check out our newsletter. and, if you're looking for The Forged's social media, here it is: Instagram: @become_the_forged Facebook: www.facebook.com/becomeforged Youtube: www.youtube.com/@becometheforged

    It's a season of trimming - do you have the guts?

    It's easy to add things to our plates. It's simple to commit and say yes. But how hard it is to say no or to trim off the fat. It may just be one of the most important decisions you make in this season...
