Lovett Legacy – A 5-year Journey From Boyhood to Manhood

Lovett Legacy Shift One

From Ease to Difficulty

Boys want a life of ease. Men are willing to embrace difficulty.

For the next 10 weeks, Cale and I will be studying the life of Joseph. Through this study, we’ll explore how Joseph navigated the many challenges in his life and how he consistently responded in ways that glorified God.

  • Whole to a Part: Week Seven – Jesus is Better

    Boys are Satisfied. Men want More. God will give you a hunger for more. Jesus has officially entered the narrative in the John the Baptist story.

  • Whole to a Part: Week Four – Raising Your Voice
