HABITS SERIES OVERVIEW
Ever met someone and think, “This person is great! I want to get to know them better.” That’s how some of the best friendships and relationships can start. Well the coolest person we could ever get to know is the One who created us and the world – God. And He created us not to just know facts about Him, but to have a relationship with Him. The goal of this series is to help middle schoolers better know and connect with God by developing some spiritual habits that bring their relationship with God the center of an everyday kind of faith.
