  <description>What does it mean to thrive? What does it mean to be in a thriving season? Welcome to the final series of 2023 for Vantage Point. In this series we will take a look at a word that is quite common in our culture. The idea of vigorous growth and well-being, who wouldnt want that? We understand thrive but do we understand it how we should? What does it mean to thrive in spite of challenges? Can you thrive after hurt, pain, or loss? Is our vision for thriving in line with what God wants for us? 
Tune in and let's explore together the transformative power of thriving in our journey of faith. In this series, we dive into what it truly means to thrive: spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. Thrive will inspire, encourage, and guide you towards a better understanding of thriving, how to identify it, and how to enjoy it. Lock in and let's explore together the transformative power of thriving in our journey. Welcome to Episode One of Thrive: Thankful &amp;amp; Thriving.
"My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style." - Maya Angelou.
