COLLEGE MINISTRY FOLLOW US ON Join our College Ministry GroupMe to get all the important details about what is happening! https://groupme.com/join_group/109932009/0qc4Cdo8 Sunday is an important day of the week for Christians: we gather for worship, share the Lord’s Supper, and celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. While all these things are im-portant, good, and right, the reality is that most of our lives are spent doing the things we do during the other six days of the week. Whether you are a student, employed, unemployed, or retired, The Other Six Days is a series exploring the idea that how we spend our time during those days matters. It isn’t just about going to school or working to provide for your family, pay the bills, or save for retirement—it is bigger than those things. It is about how God uses what we do during the other six days to proclaim the resurrection of Jesus. It is about how God uses our time and our work to rescue, redeem, and restore the world He created. This series is an invitation to see your Monday through Saturday—what you do in class, at work, or at home—as holy ground. It is an invitation to recognize that the other six days are not separate from our faith, but a vital expression of it.
