God has given you a place. Your place may be your home, your church, your small group, your neighborhood, your PTA, your place of work, your city. He’s calling each of us to plant our roots – to enjoy the gift of stability that comes from staying put…to push through the challenges we might encounter there so that we might bear spiritual fruit. But he’s also placed you there so that you might be a blessing. Live faithfully as a disciple of the Lord. Live simply and peacefully as others watch. But most of all, live as a servant.

In this sermon series, The Power of Place, Dr. Jim Mann will discusses the counter-cultural idea of staying put and growing roots.
