English term or phrase: Reach up! Reach out! Reach across!
I'm translating a Christian article to spanish, and the title is:
"Reach Up! Reach Out! Reach Across!"
Any ideas as to how to translate this title?

Context: The article explains what each term refers to:
"Reach Up" refers to personal spiritual growth ("reach up to God").
"Reach Out" refers to witnessing to others ("reach out to non-Christians")
"Reach Across" refers to mutual support for spiritual growth among Christian church members ("reach across to other Christians").

For now my best shot is: "¡Hacia arriba, a tu lado y más allá!"
Any suggestions will be welcomed
Thanks!
