Abundant is a four-week worship series rooted in Jesus’ promise in John 10:10: “I came to give life with joy and abundance.” Designed to support the United Methodist Church’s initiative to improve global health, the series invites congregations to see God as an active participant in every part of their lives, framed by the Trinity Knot as a picture of God’s presence in mind, body and spirit. Each week explores one theme: Abundant Love, Abundant Joy, Abundant Hope and Abundant Faith. The planner includes weekly sermon resources, prayers, music recommendations, daily scripture readings and discussion questions for small groups and leadership teams, along with suggested books, video resources and series graphics.
Pastors and worship teams can use the series as written or adapt it to fit their own congregation’s setting and worship style. The discussion materials also carry the conversation beyond Sunday morning into small groups and leadership meetings.
