Elevate Others | Pastor John Eaton | Relate Series | 9/14/2025
This week, we dive deep into the second step of the RELATE journey—Elevate Others.
What does it really mean to put others first in a world that constantly tells you to protect yourself at all costs? Jesus showed us a different way—a way of love, responsibility, and purpose.
🧭 In this message, you’ll learn:
Why true love begins with you taking care of YOU.
How living responsibly is actually the first step to loving others.
What it looks like to stop being a threat to others and start being a blessing.
How to set boundaries that honor both your purpose and the people in your life.
Why recognizing others as God’s possession changes how you treat them.
How to lovingly challenge others to rise to the identity God gave them.
🧩 Part of the RELATE Framework:
R – Reroute My Thinking (Watch last week’s sermon!)
E – Elevate Others 👈
L – List My Threats
A – Accept My Part
T – Turn From My Sin
E – Enlist Accountability
📖 Scripture References:
Mark 3:20–21, 31–35
Leviticus 25:23–24
Hebrews 2:6–8
Ephesians 4:15, 4:14–16 (MSG)
💡 Key Quote:
"Elevating others starts when I remove the threat I pose to them—by taking care of me and living out my God-given purpose."
