Honoring Movement
August 20, 2023
Pastor Jeff Manion talks about some principles to use when discerning how and when to help others from the story of Ruth. Through this conversation, we see biblical patterns of rewarding positive behavior and using wise criteria to determine who to help. We are challenged not to let these principles stop us from helping, but instead to help in ways that move someone forward instead of keeping them stuck.

Through this conversation, we see the power of proximity and inviting someone to do something with us instead of doing something for them. We are challenged to genuinely pray for the next thirty days for God to show us who we need to invite into our life.

Family Matters
Pastor Jeff Manion concludes our series Helping without Hurting by discussing the early church’s example of family members helping each other. Through this conversation, we discover how families are the first line of help. We are challenged to honor our parents by caring for them and other family members in need. We are encouraged to see how providing for needs, our own and others’, pleases God.

Spaces
Where does God meet us? Throughout Scripture, he meets his people in real places—mountains, deserts, seas, and the temple. Each place teaches us something about who he is. Join us for The Places Where God Meets Us, a six-week series exploring how these spaces point forward to Jesus, the one who meets us still.
