For generations, we've been sold the idea that the stuff that we accumulate will mean something down the road. We can buy for it a high price, keep it, and sell it for a higher price. This process will bring us peace and security - except when it doesn't. This isn't God's priority for us. Instead, God call us to invest in God's Kingdom - our relationships in the world.
Also, Pastor Trey and Pastor Emily are joined by Luke Edwards, Associate Director for Church Development for the Western North Carolina Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, who also has a new book out called Becoming Church: A Trail Guide for Starting Fresh Expressions, to talk about fresh ways that churches can invest in the relationship building process.
