Equipping U: Presence Pathway

Presence Pathway is a 6-week journey designed to help you move from simply knowing about God to truly encountering Him. Through daily guided devotionals and a weekly class experience (in person or online), you’ll learn how to slow down, seek the Lord, and build a rhythm of walking with Him in everyday life. In a world full of noise, distraction, and spiritual autopilot, Presence Pathway is an invitation to something deeper. This isn’t about adding another task to your schedule; instead, it’s about reorienting your life around the presence of God. As part of our church-wide initiative, Encounter, this pathway will help you develop intentional habits of prayer, Scripture, and surrender so that your faith moves from routine to relationship. You were made to walk with Him. Presence Pathway is your next step into that reality.
