A Call to Break Ground
As we break ground physically for a new building, we are also called to break spiritual ground—trusting God with our whole lives, repenting from spiritual dormancy, and stepping forward in obedience.

3 Ways We’re Breaking Ground Today
1. Trusting God with ALL Our Heart — Trust Him with everything—our plans, resources, future, and obedience.
2. Engaging in Spiritual Battle — This is a spiritual fight, not just a construction project. The enemy pushes back when God’s people step forward.
3. Breaking Up Fallow Ground — Fallow ground = dormant, unused. It’s time for spiritual awakening, repentance, and missional action.

Reflection Questions
• What 'fallow ground' might exist in your heart?
• Where is God asking you to trust Him more fully?
• Are there areas where you’ve settled for dormancy instead of active obedience?

Legacy and Mission
“Today we break physical ground, but more importantly—we commit to breaking ground in our hearts.”
- We stand on the shoulders of faithful men and women before us.
- This new step is not just about buildings—it's about transformation.
- God is calling all of us to say “yes” to His mission.

Prayer Challenge
Pray this each day this week:
"Lord, break up the fallow ground in my heart. Awaken me to Your mission. Help me trust You with all I am. Use me to bring gospel transformation to this community."
