When You Stop Holding Back

About this sermon

Do you ever feel like you'd be happier if you could make a little more money, buy that car, or land that job? The Bible tells us it's more blessed to give than to receive. (Acts 20:35) But how is that possible? And how do you stop holding yourself back from being generous? We'll find out in this message. When you give to Life.Church, you’re helping people around the world experience the love and hope of Christ.

Before you click "buy," before you take one more bite, or before you lash out at the people you love. Can the decisions you make today help you live the life you really want tomorrow? Let's learn together in our new message series, Pre-Decide. We’ve hand-picked articles, podcasts, and Bible Plans to help you learn how to make better choices in your life.
