For though we can give without loving, it is almost impossible to love without giving. We want to repurpose the old world “charity” that is often seen exclusively today as “throwing money at poverty” or giving money to charitable institutions and see it in its broader, biblical setting.

Part 7 - Industria
May 17, 2015 • David Sulcer
Industry is about making and constructing things. It works to make our world a better place, and strives to enhance the goodness of our community. Through work it labors, sweats, dreams, and purposes to change the environment to make life more full, free, and fruitful.
Part 6 - Benevolentia
May 10, 2015 • Pastor Herb Reisig
Neighborliness rejoices with those who rejoice and weeps with those who weep. However, envy weeps AT those who rejoice, and rejoices AT those who weep. Envy refuses, at it’s core, family, neighbor, fellowship, friendship by enacting a falsehood of alienation instead of the truth of solidarity.
Part 5 - Patientia
May 3, 2015 • David Sulcer
A healthy understanding of both anger and patience must begin with a true understanding of the brokenness of the world. God's slowness to unleash His justified rage is a perfect expression of the restraint of patience. It is the basis for our living out patience. Whether we're stuck in traffic, dealing with a whiny kid, or faced with an incredible injustice, we must be slow to let our anger kindle into rage.
