NEXTing Community

Congratulations, NEXTing Community! We've completed —55 weeks—of NEXTing Notes, filled with insights from the book and thought-provoking questions designed to inspire self-reflection. We hope you found these notes engaging and gained strategies and strength for navigating change and making important transitions on your life’s journey.

Now, we invite you to join the appraisal phase: reflect on your experiences, then connect with the group to share how the book and notes have impacted your life and influenced your journey. If you have any questions about NEXTing, feel free to post them—Dr. Tim will be happy to address them in our new 2026 group format.

Stay tuned for updates on your questions and upcoming NEXTing events.

NEXTing begins with a decision rooted in discipline. Through mental and emotional discipline, you can develop healthy habits, self-control, and focus—essential components for carrying out the NEXTing strategy. Have you fully committed to expecting, embracing, and experiencing God's plans (NEXT) for your future, both near and far?

You must process before you progress. Processing helps you prepare and reconcile the profound changes that push you into a new life, a new self, and a new dimension of growth. Have you developed the habit of processing change so that your transitions lead to progress or growth?

NEXTing involves "threshold work," which refers to evaluating changes before moving forward into new situations. This process includes considering what is appropriate to retain and what should be left behind when transitioning into new settings. Do you tend to disregard "threshold work" and hope that the results will be tolerable?
