We were designed to lay our lives down for others. Jesus modeled this in the laying down of His life—which was the plan from the beginning. In this message, Kris Vallotton unpacks a key factor to living in the fullness we were designed for. With happiness and enjoyment as products of doing what we were created to do, listen and discover how God's design for fulfillment in your life bears the fruit of true happiness, and how pursuing temporary pleasures perpetuates emptiness.
A legendary team and its members are proactive - they have a "can do" attitude and take initiative to do right and accomplish God's purpose. Choosing a proactive posture buys up the opportunity (Gal. 6:10) and trusts that we can do anything through Christ (Phil. 4:13).

You won't want to miss hearing the story of Jonathan Almonte's life—born in poverty in the Dominican Republic, unable to attend school, burdened with medical challenges, and contemplated becoming part of a gang—all interrupted in the best way by God caring for him through a local church, Compassion International, and his sponsor. Not only was Jonathan's life changed, but his family came to know Christ as well. And all this came about because of the way God used a woman from Michigan named Jamie, who chose to sponsor a child in her 20s instead of getting a new car. How can you share what God has given you to bless others and point them to Jesus? We'd love to challenge you to consider sponsoring a child through Compassion International as a way to practically love others.

This month on the podcast, we're talking all about gifts. God tells us in his Word that he has given all of us gifts, but in a world where we are bombarded with messages to live our best lives, focus on our own happiness, and put ourselves first, we can easily miss the why behind the gifts God has given. Natalie Abbott, co-founder of Dwell Differently, walks us through the context of 1 Peter 4:10, helping us understand what this verse is saying and what it means for how we live our lives. If you're stuck living with a scarcity mindset or just need a bit of encouragement to rediscover the joy of using your gifts to serve others, you're in the right place!This month's memory verse: “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.” — 1 Peter 4:10Memorize Scripture with us: Find out more about Dwell's monthly kit with temporary tattoos, a display card, a key tag, and more to help you know and dwell on God's Word.Get our weekly devotional email: Dive deeper into this month's verse.Did you love today's episode?: We'd love to hear about it!
