In Roots Season (Feb. 22 - Apr. 1) we see God taking a new step in his campaign to connect, heal, and bless the world. 

 

Through one couple, Abraham and Sarah, he birthed a "demo and delivery team" that grew into the millions. Its special assignment was to bless all other groups with his healing and life. 

 

God did this because he had already shown humanity that commands, warnings, punishments, and second chances did not get us out of our death spiral of murder, corruption, abuse, and racism (Genesis 4-11). There had to be some kind of team, and it had to work as a positive example, not a deadly force. 

​

The SYNC theme color for Roots Season is brown to remind us of the earth that the Roots are growing in, as shown in the icon above. That earth represents God's strategy as he described it to Abraham, the key person in the Roots story (Genesis 12).

​

Our assignment in God's campaign is to be fruitful branches on the Abraham family tree. We do that by staying connected to our roots in Abraham, which give us a secure identity and a significant purpose--to bless the world.

 

God's desires to unite our divided world and heal our broken world. He turns that desire into assignments and gives them to us. His vision for the world comes true as we do his will by his power.
