About this track
The Passion & Purpose Lab (P&P Lab) is a practical approach to defining an individual's "whatever" while exploring the unique gifting, wiring, strengths, and opportunities that God has given each of us. We are each uniquely fitted with a passion that makes us come alive. God's purpose for His people is to make Jesus known to the world around them. The P&P Lab sets a foundation for understanding our purpose and using our passions to step into the calling God is placing on our lives.
