PATHWAY MARKER THREE
Marker Three is for those who are maturing in their spiritual life and helping others grow in their faith journey.
Service Opportunities
Serving, or putting the interests of others ahead of our own, makes a enormous impact on the spiritual development of a Christ follower. We are never more like Jesus than when we serve: “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others” (Matthew 20:28). When we serve within a church ministry or outside the church, we grow to be more like Jesus. So Lakeside places a high priority on serving within the church and in our local and global communities. We encourage you to serve in any capacity, in whatever opportunity that interests you and/or exercises your gifts, talents and experience. Check out several service opportunities below:

SPIRITUAL PRACTICES
Spiritual Practices are one of four areas that the Christ follower engages in to advance their spiritual growth. They are regular actions and activities undertaken for the purpose of cultivating spiritual development. Lakeside believes that the profile of a disciple at Marker III includes:
• Solitude
• Biblical Meditation
• Journaling
• Fasting
• Sacrificial Giving
Look through the list of spiritual practices and identify the areas where you are faithfully “exercising” and experiencing growth. Good for you! Are there particular practices that you would like to strengthen? Keep reading the Pathway website as well as the Lakeside website for opportunities to build up your spiritual practices and become a more faithful disciple of Jesus.
