    The God who would live and die as one of us to bring us back to himself, and would rise from the grave in the promise of a new life, a new world, for every one of us. This is our God. By becoming what we repeatedly do, pursuing a life of peace and virtue, witnessing to a world of peace, we make the claim that this is our God. By living a life that states, unequivocally, with our time, our talent, our treasure, our families, our work, our hobbies, our communities, our EVERYTHING, that this is our God, we join the work of that God, our God, in making all things new.

    Rooted in Abundance

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 2, 2023 11:53


    Jesus says, "I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly." Jesus didn't come so we could have life where we grab everything and hold on to it. Jesus didn't come so that we might have life where we might win. Jesus didn't come so that we could have all the toys. Jesus came to show us what it means to live. Jesus showed us what it means to share. Jesus showed us what it means to be rooted in abundance. So we're called to emulate that. We're called to walk in the way Jesus taught us. We're called to put down the toys, to share what we have so that others around us can experience God's abundance to a man.
