If we do not build margins into our lives and our finances, we have little room for generosity. And if we spill over the margins of our lives, whether they be professional, financial or emotional, it always leads to the same conclusion: burnout. 

When we make a margin for the marginalized, it keeps our own greed in check and in turn blesses the world. Additionally, when we make margins for the marginalized, we become happier and holier people. 

And when we make a margin for the marginalized, we get that much closer to serving the poor in an intentional and fruitful way that fulfills the Lord's command in Matthew 25 "If you did it to the least of these, you did it to me."

May we be a people that are not known for what we possess, but for what and how we give.

We all have faced difficulties in our lives, especially in this year of 2020. Listen as our senior pastor Jeff Patterson unpacks Psalm 100 and shows the difference of having an attitude of praise in contrast with having an attitude of whining.

God has given everyone opportunity and ability, but do we joyfully use them or hide them out of fear? How can we walk in freedom and joy with God while having an open heart, an open wallet and an open calendar? LIsten to the "parable of the talents" in Matthew 25 and hear ways we can leverage all we have as an act of worship towards God.

What is the main purpose of our lives? To be happy? To be holy? Or to be both? Listen as Rev Clark Chilton leads us through the Beatitudes in the Gospel of Matthew
