Episode 1324: The Vision Behind Unleashing Compassion
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The more people who are pursuing God and building true community, the more compassion we are going to unleash into a broken world. Today we want to share a vision for Eastside Christian Church, a hope that one day it can be said of us, just as it was said of the early church, that there were no needy persons among us. That kind of vision starts small, with how we choose to see and care for the people right around us.
Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside’s conviction that God’s grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God’s presence and activity in your life.
