Course Description:

Life is unpredictable. Some things happen that no one can control. But many things happen on account of what you choose. This course helps you link your future to your choices by inviting you into a paradigm- changing process called "Strategic Futuring" uniquely designed by Right On Mission. Prepare to be challenged because at Right On Mission, we treat believers as "new creatures" in Christ who have a duty to shape the future by taking responsibility for their decisions. As a student in this course, you will be closely guided as you engage in deep reflection and decide how much you are willing to trust God. NOTE: In tandem with this course, students must invest in a Life Mission Statement from Right On Mission.

Key Questions To Be Explored:

• What is my desired future? Do I have a vision for my life? Do I have the right to live a visionless life?
• Am I locked inside a predestined, unalterable future while I am here on earth?
• How hopeful am I regarding my own future? How much does my future depend upon me?
• What is my plan of action in light of life’s surprises and disappointments and felt losses? And in light of other people’s decisions?
• Do I really want to impact the future? Am I willing then to be transformed myself?
