Pastor Levi unpacks the Good Samaritan parable to reveal four choices we make every time we get paid: steal, stockpile, sacrifice, or steward. Through the story of a man left for dead on the Jericho road, see why looking the other way versus going out of your way reveals what's truly in your heart. If you've been saved, goodness and mercy will follow—and this message will show you what that looks like practically with your finances.GIVE YOUR YEAR-END OFFERING:Be a part of building the Kingdom: https://freshlife.church/give/NEXT STEPS:Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: https://freshlife.church/contactRegister your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: https://freshlife.church/know-godGive a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: https://freshlife.church/giveSUBSCRIBE:Sign up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: https://church.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6ea4d82b2567db3e86b7767cd&id=451f2fe63eDon’t miss a video!

A confused team can't sell a clear product. Period. If your executive team can't clearly articulate your mission, you're already losing ground. You think you've cast a vision, but no one's catching it. Instead, you're running a business with a fractured identity where every department is chasing a different goal, and your customers are left scratching their heads.

In this Christmas series opener, Dr. John explores a foundational question: If people walked with God before Jesus came, why do we need Him? Drawing from Galatians 3:15-18, he examines God's covenant with Abraham and the promise that all nations would be blessed through Abraham's "seed." Through Israel's turbulent history, Dr. John reveals that the promised blessing didn't come through a nation, but through one person: Jesus Christ.
Christmas From Galatians: This Christmas, Dr. John takes an unprecedented approach to the season by exploring why Jesus' coming was absolutely necessary. Through the book of Galatians, this series traces God's plan from Abraham's promise through the giving of the Law to the arrival of Christ. Discover why the Law was never meant to save us but to diagnose our condition, how Jesus fulfilled what we could never accomplish, and how Christmas opened the door for all people to become sons and daughters of God.
