STUCK IN THE MESSY

<p>Here at the Life Center, we want to see God, ourselves, and others in the correct light so that our service is effective, loving, and rightly motivated. That’s why we came up with service ideals to help us remember why we do what we do and that God is ultimately in control of it all. Join Micah, Christa, and our special guest Mauricio Carbone as we discuss our third and fourth ideals and share Life Center updates.</p><p><br></p><p>📧 Do you feel unsure how to connect with someone holding a cardboard sign?
