Breath of Fresh Air
Breathing Room
October 19 - 20 • Ian Trigg
A few weeks ago I had the privilege of speaking to our senior adults at their luncheon, and what a remarkable group of people they are! We are so blessed to learn with and from them all. During the event, one thing I highlighted was the kind of old guy I wanted to grow into. I made a list ?— which was really helpful, you might want to try it! ?— that included things like:
A friend shared a similar list with me, and discussed wanting to be a guy surrounded by good friends in his later years. But while it's worthwhile reflecting on such lists, an obvious implication starts to emerge: in order to obtain the values and traits we want in the future, we need to start embodying them now.
This weekend we'll look at relational margin and capacity from Romans 12. It's a beautiful description of the kind of friend and person God wants us to become. We'll dive into what relational margin looks like, how to cultivate it and how it blesses others in our lives. It will be a special weekend and I look forward to celebrating Jesus with you!
