Pastor Doug came back to our Spirit of Generosity Series by warning us of the dangers of being preoccupied and controlled by money. If our hearts are not right we can allow money to dictate how we invest, how we love, and what we value. May Jesus change our hearts to severe the bondage that comes when we allow money to control us.

Hospitality is welcoming people into your living space, treating strangers like family so God can turn some of them into friends.

Pastor Doug continued in our Spirit of Generosity Series by sharing in the Word about what it looks like to be generous in our hospitality. If we invite other into our lives and seek their comfort and blessing we show them the love of Christ and we win the right to speak truth into their life.

Pastor Doug taught that part of generosity is being generous in terms of forgiveness.

Pastor Doug kicked off our new series, A Spirit of Generosity. This week we looked at being generous in forgiveness. We have been forgiven much by Jesus Christ. We can forgive others no matter the grievance.
