To the Least

Posted on February 8, 2025 by pastorjeffsneighborhood

True love is feeding the hungry, giving water to the thirsty, taking in the immigrant, visiting the lonely prisoner. The amazing part is that Jesus says when we do these practical acts of love and kindness to the “least of these,” it’s like we are doing it for Him.

Wise or Foolish?

Between Promise and Fulfillment

Posted on February 2, 2025 by pastorjeffsneighborhood

It is not easy to wait.  It is not easy to trudge ahead when the circumstances seems hopeless. It is not easy to hold on to the promise when there is no “milk and honey” in sight. But this is not a time to grumble and complain, it is a time to trust and obey. Continue reading →
