Pastor Vicky Foster highlights that the early church was marked by extravagant generosity to the poor. These followers of Jesus formed socioeconomically diverse communities that cared for each other like family, something unheard of in the 1st century Greco-Roman world. All of this was in response to the teachings of Jesus and the Apostles, which repeatedly emphasize the call to care for those in need. Vicky explores how followers of Jesus can walk in the footsteps of the early church by cultivating diverse, interdependent communities, addressing key questions such as, “Who are the poor, and who are the rich?” And, “What does it look like in my life to care for those in need?” and calling Junction 10 to step deeper into the mandate of God to “build community with Jesus at the centre”

Pastor Will Foster focuses on the clear and simple truth: We are guests in God’s world. Our role is that of a steward, not an owner, and in that role, we are entrusted with God’s resources for our own good and for the good of others.
Will looks at the ‘two standards’ or ‘banners’ – the banner of Christ which is in a place of generosity that is peaceful, just and beautiful and that of the enemy who seduces us with riches and deceives and tempts with wealth.
Practically we consider together how to avoid the pitfalls of wealth, and practical ways of cultivating a stewardship mentality, even with little resources. -

Phil Miles continues our series and considers that accumulation and acquisition are often celebrated as the path to security and happiness, but Jesus warns against the broken human desire to always want more.
Phil explores how Jesus’ way of generosity can set us free from enslavement to greed and slowly train our hearts to be deeply happy and content.
Learn how the pursuit of possessions leads to hurry and anxiety, ways to become more sensitive to our invisible propensity towards greed, and why Jesus calls wealth so deceitful. -
Joe kicks off our new generosity series asking the question “Does more money mean more happiness?” Joe walks through some of Jesus's surprising teachings on money, showing us how social science affirms the fact that generosity, not accumulation, leads to joy. He challenges us to reflect on whether we have an abundance or scarcity mindset and invites us to deepen our trust in God's generosity.
