If you try to set boundaries and borders so as to balance summer life and discipleship, you will feel like you are doing both halfway. If you try to ensure that you are fully committed to your summer life and your commitment to grow as a disciple and make disciples, you will feel crushed by the weight of it all. But, Jesus said his commands weren't burdensome. Is there another way?

Jesus lived the perfect, spiritually healthy life. He was balanced, rested, connected to his Father, and focused on his rescue mission. What can we learn from the way that Jesus lived his life? How can we learn to live more like him?

Jesus had a great deal to say about our possessions and our money! In one of the more challenging parables of our Savior, Jesus teaches how we can store up treasures in heaven. By investing in opportunities to share the Gospel, a glorious welcoming committee awaits us!

We have a lot in common with the Corinthian church. They too lived in a relatively well to do area. They had business, jobs, and resources at their disposal, but with all of these blessings from God they lacked something extremely crucial - generosity. What can we learn from Paul’s words to the Corinthians? How can we learn to be generous like Jesus?

When it comes to making decisions with our money, there are thousands of voices in our world telling us what to do. Sometimes, however, it seems like God's voice is the hardest to hear, and when he communicates through the Scriptures, the advice can be confusing. Should I give everything away? Should I sell all my possessions? Should I enjoy them as good gifts? We all tend to want a list of rules to make these things clear, but God has given us something better than rules. He offers us relationship.
