On Sunday we got to hear from our Pastors at each Emmanuel location. It was so good to hear inspiring and challenging messages from each of them as we continued our series “BeCAUSE of Eternity.” Each of us can live life in such a way that we set in motion a Kingdom legacy. We are inspired by our heroes and guides, and we each have someone that is watching how we live life. We can each craft a “Kingdom Legacy List” with goals regarding our generosity, our marriage, our children and/or grandchildren, and our involvement in the Great Commission. All of us can position our life for significance and Kingdom legacy! If you couldn’t join on Sunday, check out Pastor Nathan Grams’ message at Emmanuel Spring Lake Park.

On Sunday Pastor Nate kicked off our new series “BeCAUSE of Eternity.” When we fix our eyes on eternity and begin to live God-reliant lives, we are fueled by trust in the Lord rather than fear. When we anchor our trust in eternity instead of the temporary, it impacts our stewardship of what’s in our hands. We practice the blessing of dedicating the whole to God by presenting Him with the first tenth. As we grow in trust we grow in faith, and we experience His favor on our life!

As we find our identity and our freedom in Christ, we can then live to see others set free.

Whatever our assignment and whatever the season we may find ourselves in, God has entrusted us with opportunities and responsibilities.
