Hey, welcome to the Church Home Podcast. My name is David, and I'm the CEO here at Church Home.

And I'm so glad that you've joined us today. In just a moment, you're going to hear an encouraging message around the person of Jesus and his love for you.

But if we can serve you in any way as a community,

we would love to do that.

And the best way for you to get connected

is to actually chat with one of our pastors on our

pastor chat tool which you can do on churchhome.org or on the churchhome website and

hey if you've been impacted by this podcast in your

walk and journey with Jesus we want to invite you to exercise your faith by

actually giving and generosity to help the message of Jesus go be spread across the globe through Church Home.

And you can do so by texting the word generosity to the number 97,000.

Now sit back, relax, and enjoy this message.
