year one is all about learning who you are.
who am i? this question helps unlock the answers to all the others. by recognizing your identity as created in god’s image, you can discover your purpose rooted in him, god’s design for work as part of creation, and the context in which you can use your gifts to shape the world.
as part of god’s larger story, we understand our calling to be the image of god expressed through our personality, gifts and talents in community. we are called to be agents of new creation, which we see incarnated in the life and work of jesus christ.
during year one, you will discover your strengths and defining character traits and how those innate qualities align with various occupations and interests.
