Abide: Do Good

To do good is to work out the reality of our holiness and the reality of who God is in our actions, stepping into the world, believing that we carry the spirit of God and that our actions testify to who He is, making God more known and pointing to the reality of Him.  

Abide: Do Good

What we do with our selves (mind, body, and spirit), is a working out of the internal revelation of intimacy with God, our identities as His "beloved," and His purpose for our lives. - Ryan Adams

Abide: Purpose

Our purpose is to be intentional about changing the world. - Cole NeSmith
