Session 4: Flourishing People

Before watching the video, engage with the necessary prompts in the study guide.

In session four, church leaders dive into the seven key areas that define human flourishing and explore how to support congregants in these dimensions of life and faith. Nona Jones emphasizes the importance of viewing each person's journey holistically, recognizing that flourishing is more than theological belief—it's deeply tied to relational, vocational, financial and emotional well-being.

Leaders are encouraged to assess how well their church currently fosters these areas and to identify potential growth opportunities. Through biblical reflection, group discussions and personal action steps, this session prompts leaders to begin thinking about what it takes to create a nurturing church environment where individuals can grow in all aspects of their lives. Ultimately, the session reminds leaders that, while they can guide the process, true growth is the work of God alone.
