The three enemies of the “immeasurably more” life Jesus has for us are control, comparison, and competition. If we can let go of these, trust God, and choose generosity, we can receive the life God offers us.Dr. Mark Foster által

We know deep down that the good life isn’t about money, but still we find ourselves trying to pursue fulfillment, security, and happiness through accumulation.

God is generous and gives us immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine, and we have a part to play in accessing this abundance for the good of our neighbors as well as ourselves. Pastor Mark shares the key to unlocking God’s abundance in your life.Dr. Mark Foster által

When it comes to faith and politics, the specifics can get complicated, but the bottom line is not. As followers of Jesus, our political agenda is to love our neighbors and our enemies.Dr. Mark Foster által
