How do we continue to lean on God and stay humble in our Earthly feelings and endeavors?

Christians are called to love one another and the world. Period. We are a big tent church and that has great advantages, we are the better for it and we hope that it embodies the plurality of Christ's Kingdom on earth. In this time of division we have great opportunity to live the Gospel of love the way Christ intended.

In the wake of recent news, Pastor Jack invites us to love sacrificially.

Mutual submission - freely offered - is love. But what if I don't trust you? How is it possible to mutually submit to each other when we don't know the best way forward and someone has to have the last word?

Jesus inaugurates the Kingdom of God by saying change is coming now. Great right? It turns out that real change might actually cost us something. Good news though is that it is definitely worth it.

Pastor Jack spurs us on to encourage each other in the best ways.

"Thanks be to God that their mistakes don't have to define our reality."

Forgiveness is less of a feeling and more of a process. What might that process be like?

Sometimes we become angry with one another and we try to justify that anger. In the wake of that anger there is a backlash of hurt and destruction. Do not hold grudges against one another, resolve your personal conflict and do not let it fester within. As your anger is brought to one another, also bring it to God and he will resolve your troubles and give you peace.

Yes, it's okay to be angry. Believe it or not, the apostle Paul calls us to be angry. Yet, he admonishes us immediately to not let our anger cause sin. Interestingly, this jibes with modern psychology. The dance between acknowledging anger and living with grace can be very difficult, but its worth a life's pursuit.
