Wiles \nFirst Baptist Arlington \nMay 11, 2025 \nMother’s Day \n \nFlourishing Together \nFirst Baptist Arlington \n2025 – 2030 \n \n2025: Flourishing Together: Rooted in Christ \n1 Corinthians 2:6-16 (Gospel Guide: Matthew) \n \nSPRING 2025: Walk This Way! \nApril 27 – May 31, 2025 \n \nBe perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. \nJesus (Matthew 5:48) \n \nLove is the Greatest! \nColossians 3:1-17 \n \nTheme for 2025:\tFlourishing Together: Rooted in Christ \n \nTheme for Spring 2025: Walk This Way! \n \nHUMAN FLOURISHING: One of the domains currently being researched in the Global Flourishing Study is Character and Virtue. \n \nINAUGURATED ESCHATOLOGY: We live in the intersection of This Present Evil Age and The Age to Come. Personal application of this reality is seen in the Apostle Paul’s teachings that the transformation of our inner character, revealed through virtuous living, is the anticipation of our promised future state as believers in the Age to Come. \n \nFUNDAMENTAL TRUTH: Followers of Jesus have been redeemed, restored, and raised to a new life in Him! \n  \nFAITH JOURNEY: We are on a path to learn to know our Creator and become like Him! \n \nFOREMOST VIRTUE: Love! Love is the greatest! \n  \nThe English word “love” is trying to do so many different jobs at the same time that someone really ought to sit down with it and teach it how to delegate. \n-N. T.
