In this video, you'll hear from Nolen Rollins, the founder of GPS Life Journey and others about what the benefits are from participating in the GPS Life Journey process.

In John chapter 17, verse four,  Jesus, God, the son is talking to God, the father, and he says, I have glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work you sent me here to do.  [Nolen Rollins] "My question for you is this, have you glorified, or are you glorifying God because you're engaged in faith, fulfilling the specific work that God has for you to do here on earth?" 

GPS Life Journey will help you discover your purpose here on earth and the good works that God has created you to do to bring Him glory.

Loreen Robertson says, "I love participating in GPS Life Journey. It really gave me a sense of purpose and focus for my life.  I definitely would recommend GPS Life Journey because it will just give you a more focus and significance for your life."

GPS Life Journey consists of eight facilitator led sessions: 
 
1.  Discovering My Personality
2.  Discovering My Experiences, Abilities and Strengths
3.  Discovering My Passions, Spiritual Gifts and Values
4.  Discovering How to Get Direction from God
5.  Developing My Personal Mission Statement
6.  Developing My Personal Vision
7.  Developing My Priority Action Steps and Venues
8.  Developing Margins in My Life

Janine Bateson says, "God has placed me exactly where he wants me. He is having me do exactly what he wants to have done and I would not have known."

Paula Mills says, " It is an absolute joy to know that I'm living God's purpose for my life. It takes a lot of stress out of my life. It gives me great happiness and I love watching other people find their purposes in life.  It's just a win win situation."

There are several formats for participating in a  GPS Life Journey group , from an eight week small group to a two day intensive Blitz format. There is a format that will fit your schedule. 

Pastor John Hunn says, "GPS Life Journey has been an amazing benefit to our church here at First Baptist Lenore City.  It has been an absolute godsend, so much so that we made it the year of mobilization. Over 200 of our members have discovered their life purpose and we loved it so much. This year is our second year of mobilization."

This month's GPS Life Journey Story is from Glenda Haendschke.
"I moved to East Tennessee five years ago having left a very large non-denominational church in Florida where I truly found my home. The move to Florida initially was God-driven but not without some personal strife. It was at that church I was first baptized by immersion and truly felt the Holy Spirit take over my life. It was there where I began to learn about what a relationship with God really meant. I found fellowship with fellow believers and discovered the beauty of studying God’s Word. It was where I found the meaning of God’s Church outside the four walls where services were held. It was where I learned that God does really speak to me
… if only I’d listen.

… And then I did! I was visiting my family in Tennessee and heard the strongest message – so strong I did not think before asking my siblings what they thought about me moving to Tennessee. The rest as they say is history. I sold my house in Florida to a friend from church who had been struggling for months, trying to find the right home for herself, her mom, and her dad. I then moved to North Carolina where I also had another home to sell. God sent a family who was being displaced from their current home to buy it.

Having left a church where I was born again and planted in my spiritual journey, I began my search when I arrived in Tennessee to find the same … and was HARD! I’d go to one church then another church then and still another church before I gave up for a while. I never quite felt welcome or fulfilled. Then, four and a half years later I was led to First Baptist Church, Lenoir City (FBCLC).

I sat in the front of the church and was greeted by a couple who lived near me. They introduced me to a couple of other people and then I heard and met Pastor John Hunn. I left that day feeling like I had finally found my home! My next steps were trying to figure out how to get connected and I found a display table in the foyer that spoke about this GPS Life Journey class. Fast forward a few weeks and I get an email saying new classes were starting up again and asked which timeframe worked best for mean. And thus my GPS journey began.

While I was familiar with and in agreement with the findings of the assessments we took for the class, the jewel really was putting into writing my mission and vision statements. With the guidance of Paula Mills, my facilitator, I was able to focus on my spiritual gifts. I discovered how I could use them not only for the benefit of people in need but also to fill my tank with God’s love so that I could continue being the light God intended me to be.

Setting specific goals and thinking about how and when I could fulfill those goals was a tremendously helpful exercise.  Through those goals I identified certain mission areas that I believe will be great fits for me within FBCLC and enable me to truly become a part of this church family. I feel like I’ve finally found my home.

Thank you, Nolen Rollins, for putting this study together. Thank you, Paula, for being my guiding light through this journey and encouraging me to write these thoughts down. But most of all I am so thankful to God for reminding me once again that He has a plan for me and I just need to listen and obey!"

In this month's Note From Nolen - find out the exciting survey results from the GPS Life Journey Graduates party in Lenoir City, TN!  Below is the video transcript.

"Recently, we held a GPS Life Journey graduate reunion slash party for graduates of the GPS Life Journey process at the First Baptist Church of Lenoir City, Tennessee.  47 graduates showed up.  Many shared their testimony of their engagement in fulfilling their personal mission statement. It was extremely encouraging for all present.

Thank you to each person who filled out a survey.  The first question on the survey was: "What is your personal mission for the next stage of your life?" Everyone was able to write that down. I was encouraged by that. 

The second question was, "On a scale of 1 to 10, how engaged are you currently in fulfilling your life purpose or life mission?" The average response was eight. Again, I was very encouraged with that. 

The GPS Life Journey process is working.  If it's not working for you, we can help you. Let us help you give us a call, contact us, and let us help you with one on one free coaching so that you can stay on your life journey and fulfill your mission and bring great glory to God."
