Do-3: Find Your Balance
Find out how the right balance can help you complete your life.
It is hard to stand on a stool with 2 legs, but with 3 legs, you can find balance. Our D0-3 initiative was developed to help you find balance in your life. After some research, we found that many of our members were either doing too many things or not many things at all. They were either filled with void or burnout - or somewhere in between. That's why Do-3 was introduced, to help our members live more happy, balanced, and complete lives.
Do-3 is simply committing to doing 3 things at Bethel:
FIRST, by attending church regularly. This doesn't mean just sitting in a chair, it means actively engaging yourself in the service with the goal of converging with God. SECOND, by joining and regularly participating in a discipleship group. Our goal is for you to grow, and that is best accomplished in community. By connecting with others, we model the Body of Christ by sharing with and encouraging one another. THIRD, by serving. Without an outflow of all that God and others are investing in you, we can become unhealthy spiritually and self-focused instead of God and others-focused. We were created to bless God and others, so that our life will point others to God.
