S4 | Ep. 8 | Growing Your Influence

May 30, 2025    Ryan Capell, Jenna Clair Bryant, Jansen Bounds

When we think about cultivating and growing influence, the main way that we accomplish that is by developing relationally. The better the relationship, the better the influence which can lead to more fruitful spiritual growth. How can we get better at relationships? Mental health expert, Dr. James Kent, shares the art of listening and how it affects our influence.

What's Up at Temple:


Helping your child take their next step in baptism is one of the most meaningful parts of parenting. We invite you and your child to be part of our Next Gen Baptism Classes on June 22 in the Student Worship Center. This relaxed and fun environment will guide kids and students in understanding what it means to follow Jesus and take the step of baptism. A kid-friendly breakfast will be served, and we encourage parents or grandparents to attend with their child. Kids in 1st–5th grade will meet from 8:45 to 10:15AM, and students in 6th–12th grade will meet from 10:30 to 11:30AM. We hope you'll join us for this important class! To sign up visit, tbclife.net/events


We have a variety of groups that you can get involved in! Bible Fellowship Groups meet on campus Sundays at 9:00AM and 10:30AM. These ongoing groups are open to everyone and are designed to help you connect with others and grow in your understanding and application of God’s Word. Many smaller Discipleship Groups also form out of these fellowship groups. Also be on the lookout for new classes beginning in early August after the summer break. To view the full list of groups, visit tbclife.net/groups.
