In this week's TNC Podcast, Pastor Joe Liles, Tom Helmich, and Roseanne dive into a heartfelt discussion on generosity, community, and living out faith. Celebrating the birth of Tevo's daughter Hope, the team explores the meaning of Christian kindness through personal stories and a deep dive into Second Corinthians.
Highlights include Tom's spontaneous act of community support at St. Luke's, Roseanne's reflections on her faith journey, and Pastor Joe's insights into the true meaning of the gospel. The episode unpacks what it means to 'sow bountifully' - from shoveling snow for a neighbor to supporting those in need.
Some quotes from the podcasts...
- On Community and Church: "Church is not a building or an institution. Church is the community, it's the body of Christ."
- On Generosity: "If you sow bountifully, you will reap bountifully. If you trust me, I will supply every need."
- On Faith and Obedience: "The gospel is not about miracles or starting churches. The gospel is about forgiveness, restoring your relationship with God, and the promise of eternity."
- On Change and Growth: "Change church is about discovering who we are every time someone new walks in. We are in a constant state of discovery."
- On Confession and Humility "The hardest part is not just submitting to grace, but actually confessing our own sins. We're quick to point out others' sins, but slow to acknowledge our own."
- On Kindness: "One kind act is beautiful, but if it doesn't have a connection to a personal relationship with Jesus, it's not the full Christian life."
