“The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: 'If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?' But... the good Samaritan reversed the question: 'If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?’"
- Martin Luther King Jr.

Talk it over:

1. Sean talked about the the scarify mindset of “not enough” verses God’s abundant mindset of “more than enough.” Which category do you typically fall into? How has Covid affected your mindset?

2. Mark 12:41says, that “Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money in.” Jesus knows that our generosity is a reflection of our heart. Are you as generosity as Jesus would like you to be? If you are, what are one or two things helped you become generous? If you are not, what are one or two next steps you should take?

3. Sean unashamedly invited us to be irrationally generous through our Heart for the House giving. Take time today and pray and ask God what you should give and be faithful to God. Nothing is more invigorating than playing a part of the story of God. This is what we do!

Give you the opportunity to start a relationship with Jesus:

God created us to be with him.
Our sins separate us from God.
Sins can’t be removed by good deeds.
Paying the price for sin Jesus died and rose again.
Everyone who trust in him alone has eternal life.
Life with Jesus starts now and last forever!
