Seeing the Good

The second lifestyle we discussed at the church was one where we focus on seeing the good. Based on God, who after looking at creation declared it to be good, we believe this aspect of our lifestyle will have a huge impact if we implement it. If we choose to see the good in people and situation, we have a head start in being more like Jesus.

Here are some questions -
1 - By focusing on the good, are we ignoring all the evil?
2 - How do we develop this habit of looking at the good?
3 - When do we address the bad?

Blessed to Be a Blessing

As we begin this series on lifestyle transformation, the first lifestyle we want to look it is one of blessing. One of the key themes prevalent throughout scripture is that God blesses people to be a blessing. Sometimes it seems hard to look at our lives as a blessing. How can we be a blessing if I am just trying to get through life? Yet, story after story, we see God promise to bless people and then enable them to bless others.

To make this more real, the church is starting a collage of blessing, where we find a place to recognize the people who have been a blessing in our lives and the people we are trying to bless.

Here are some thoughts:

- What happens when you don’t feel like a blessing?

- How can I make ‘being’ a blessing a focus in my life?

What are we?

In the beginning

Hey everyone,
