Jesus Roots. Spirit’s Fruit.
The 5 Roots of 922 Ministries
What are Jesus roots? Jesus is the only way to be connected to God and thus enjoy true life. They are habits that keep us connected to Jesus, Jesus’ Word, and Jesus’ will for our lives. These five habits or roots are: Gather, Group, Grow, Give, Go.
Why plant these roots? "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control" (Gal. 5:22-23). When we are rooted in Jesus, the Holy Spirit produces what our own white-knuckle willpower cannot. The Spirit helps us love one another, have peace with God, rejoice always in the Lord, practice self-control against temptation, and so much more. You want these fruits! That's why we plant Jesus roots.
The Spirit works. You can plant all five “Jesus roots” in a single week and still not see any radical changes in your life. But give God some time. The Holy Spirit uses the Word to produce something beautiful in us. Be patient. Wait for the Lord. Because his Word never comes back empty! The Spirit is producing something beautiful in you.

Grow
Praying and having devotions at home are very important to us at St, Peter. We want our families to dive into the Word together. As partners in Christian education, this is what we are passionate about. We want all of our students and their families to grow closer to Jesus.
Give
Putting our faith in action is a great way to show love for our God. We encourage all of our students and families to use the gifts that God has given for His glory. It’s more than just financial; rather it’s about seeing who God is why it is so good for us to serve him!
Go
Why not tell others? When we know our Savior and what he has done for us, it is hard to keep it to ourselves! We want to share this message freely with those around us. We can be confident that our God will give us the tools and opportunities to do so! No time to waste!
