Our lives are in constant motion. We wake up in the morning and it's off to the races. One study shows that almost 70% of people say they don’t have enough time to spend investing in their family and friends, or taking care of themselves. In this third installment of The Big 4, Pastor Bryan Pope discusses the ancient concept of Sabbath, as old as creation itself—a day that is not a lazy day, or a day to do whatever you like—but a day God wove into the very rhythm of our lives.
Listen Well
February 6, 2022 • Brian C. Hughes • Matthew 13:43, 1 Samuel 3:7–11, James 1:19, Matthew 11:15, Matthew 13:9
The truth is that we aren’t always listening. And it’s not because we don’t care or don’t try. Deep inside of us is the desire to love the people around us—and love them well. But if they don’t feel heard and understood, then they don’t feel loved. And listening is the key to understanding. The Bible even touches on this. In this week’s message, find out what it means to REALLY listen and how to honor those around you with understanding—just as Jesus would.
