THE AFTERWORD | Here to Stay: Week 3

WestGate Church Teaching

This past weekend, we talked about how one (hugely important!) element of the Here to Stay Campaign is about generosity - we want to try, as a church, to give away more money outside of our walls than we ever have before. But why? Wouldn’t it be faster just to keep that money and use it for our own projects instead of giving it away? Well, it all comes down to “compassion.” Jay and David trace the concept of God’s compassion all the way back, and discover, shockingly, that when God first describes Himself to Moses, the very first word He uses to talk about His character is “compassionate.” We then talk about the compassion of Jesus, of the early Church, and how our call - today in this world - is the same. Also, Dave gets a little too excited and sings some Four Tops. Speakers: David Tieche + Jay Kim
