If you’re single, do you ever feel like the world is telling you that you’re missing out on something because you’re not married? Even in the church, we often equate marriage with completion—but Jesus taught something altogether different and more beautiful.

In this message from “Forever Family,” Pastor J.D. walks us through Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 19 and helps us see that, though God’s command about divorce is clear, there is no situation that he cannot redeem.

In this first message from the “Forever Family” series, Pastor J.D. shows us how the gospel shapes the essence and purpose of marriage and teaches us why, no matter what you have been called to in marriage or singleness, you’re going to need God help to accomplish it.

As Pastor J.D. continues in the “First” series, he helps us see why, though our tithe is a great place to start, God wants our giving to display what is first and best in our hearts.

Pastor J.D. shows us how to view our possessions through a generosity matrix and apply God’s wisdom to spending, saving, and giving so that we honor him with our resources.

If we’re really giving God our first and our best as good stewards, then we can amaze the world with our generosity.

Putting God first in our lives should make us joyful givers, who view giving as an investment in eternal purposes and as the only treasure that will last.

As we understand better our role as stewards of all of God’s gifts, we will better devote our short time on earth to serving our Master and preparing for eternity.

As Pastor J.D. begins this series on why God should be “First” in our lives, he helps us see that to become a committed disciple, we must understand how to have the right relationship with money.
