  1. Growing with Intention

    5D AGO

    Growing with Intention

    In a culture that encourages reactive living, Christianity demands something radically different: intentional living that aligns every aspect of life with God's mission. As believers, we're not independent actors but part of the global Body of Christ, connected to a divine purpose that spans history. This understanding transforms how we approach every decision, conversation, and action.True Christian growth doesn't happen accidentally. Ephesians 4:15-16 calls us to grow up in all aspects into Christ, requiring deliberate choices and purposeful living. This means doing everything in Jesus' name, as Colossians 3:17 instructs, and seeking God's glory in all things, whether eating, drinking, or any other activity. Our words should reflect God's message, and our service should demonstrate His strength, making others ask how we accomplish what we do.The danger of unintentional living is real - it leads to self-deception and damages the church's reputation. There's no such thing as private faith or part-time Christianity. Jesus didn't die a partial death, so our response shouldn't be partial either. Following Christ requires tearing down old foundations and rebuilding everything on Him as the cornerstone. This week, examine every area of life through the lens of intentionality, asking whether words and actions glorify God and align with His mission. Growth is the expected outcome of Christian life, and it only happens through intentional, purposeful living that represents Christ to a watching world.🌐 Websitehttps://theshed.church📘 Facebook / theshedatprovence 📷 Instagram / theshed.church 🎵 TikTok / theshed.church 📺 YouTube / @theshedatprovence

  2. Cultivating a Culture of Generosity

    OCT 19

    Cultivating a Culture of Generosity

    True generosity flows from heart transformation, not financial obligation. The Bible presents powerful contrasts between those who encounter Jesus and respond with open hearts versus those who cling to their possessions. Zacchaeus, despite being a despised tax collector, immediately offered half his wealth to the poor after Jesus invited himself to dinner - not because Jesus demanded it, but because grace transformed his perspective. Meanwhile, the rich young ruler walked away sad when asked to sell everything, choosing comfort over commitment.Jesus taught that giving reveals the true condition of our hearts and our understanding of God as our source. The widow's two coins were worth more than the large gifts of the wealthy because she gave everything while they gave from surplus. This distinction separates true giving from mere tipping - one flows from trust in God's provision while the other operates from leftover abundance. Our giving patterns reveal whether we truly believe God is our provider or if we're just paying religious dues.The focus shouldn't be on percentages or amounts but on cultivating a heart that recognizes God's ownership of everything. When we understand that all we have belongs to Him, generous giving becomes the natural response of a transformed life. The question isn't whether God needs our money - He doesn't. The question is whether we want to participate in His kingdom work or miss out on the blessing of partnership with Him.🌐 Websitehttps://theshed.church📘 Facebook / theshedatprovence 📷 Instagram / theshed.church 🎵 TikTok / theshed.church 📺 YouTube / @theshedatprovence
