God's Blueprint:
from Slavery to Significance
"Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it... But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal." - Philippians 3:13-14
The Defined Goal Line
Paul knew exactly what he was pressing toward—and so should we. Too many Christians, churches, and church leaders live without a clear, measurable goal line. When asked, "What's the finish line? What does winning look like?" many respond vaguely about "loving God more." While that's good, it's not the specific, defined goal God has revealed.
The truth is, God's plan for our lives has been in His heart for thousands of years and has never changed. It first appears clearly in the story of Moses and the Exodus, where four million Hebrew slaves discovered God's blueprint for transformation—a blueprint that remains His heart's desire for every believer today.
The Ancient Blueprint Revealed
When God called Moses to deliver His people from Egyptian slavery, He didn't just promise freedom—He outlined a comprehensive four-stage plan found in Exodus 6:6-7. Each stage, when lived out in the life of a believer, becomes the longest-running spiritual development program in history.
