Advent Series: Love (Luke 2:18-19)

December 19, 2020

(Advent Series: Part 5 of 5) A guided time with God through prayer and reflection on Scripture. In this final episode of 2020, explore the theme of love. Mary's story is a remarkable story, one that we can find a lot of our own story within, especially this year.

Foundations

This is something that many of us want in our lives. Foundations, taught by Pastor Tom Holladay and other Saddleback teachers, is a step by step approach to understanding the essentials of what it means to be a follower of Christ.

Tithing

The word "tithe" literally means “tenth" or 10%. Tithing, or giving ten percent of your income, isn't merely giving something to God. It's giving back what was his to begin with. All that we have, or hope to have, comes from him. The Bible says that tithing is a reminder that God is the supplier of everything. It teaches us to always put God first in our lives.

Small Groups

Life is not meant to be lived alone. In fact, God hates loneliness. You were created to experience life with other people, and that's why at Saddleback, we encourage you to get into a small group. A small group is a group of three or more people who gather each week in a home, workplace, or online. In a group you'll hang out, study the Word, and pray together. No matter where you are in life, there's a group for you.
