Defining characteristic of Jesus: Compassion
Christmas seems to elevate compassion in us
God demonstrated the most compassionate act by sending Jesus to be born and to eventually die for us
Jesus has been calling us to unleash compassion on His world ever since
600 million children living in extreme poverty
Extreme poverty: Live on less than two dollars a day
22,000 children die from poverty-related issues every day
Extreme poverty: Live on less than two dollars a day
22,000 children die from poverty-related issues every day
What if we made a dent in one country?
FIRST: Sponsor 200 children living in extreme poverty
Compassion International: “Releasing children from poverty in Jesus’ name”
SECOND: Plant a church with our strategic partner Stadia
LifePointe’s Christmas compassion expressions will be centered in a local church
THIRD: Go on a short-term mission trip to Ecuador
Compassion is not a feeling
Compassion is action
Compassion is action
The problem with poverty is not God’s provision but human distribution
Demonstrate compassion this week
Change a life: Change a community
