August 16 - Compelling Community: The Outward Life That Blesses | Stephen Finkel
From the beginning of God’s covenant with Abraham, blessing was never intended to be a private possession. God blesses a people so that, through them, all the families of the earth might experience God’s grace. Jesus carries that calling to the table in Luke 14, where the invitation moves outward, beyond the normal folks we would invite to be blessed at our tables. A compelling Christian community does not merely enjoy God’s blessings—it becomes a blessing through generous, attentive, and outward-looking love. [Luke 14:12–24, Genesis 12:1–3]
