Faith In Action - Trials for Hope - Sermon Central

What this episode covers

Today we conclude our short series, “Faith In Action,” where we’re looking at 3 different ways we can live our faith in the world. The United Methodist Church began as a movement dedicated to “scriptural holiness,” to live not just saying we’re Christian, but living it out in our actions—a life dedicated to loving God and loving our neighbor. Our faith is not simply what we believe in our own hearts and minds, but it is something that moves us to get involved with people; try to change broken systems; and we get our hands dirty, working to make the world better. This is work we’re all called to do in different ways, given our unique personality, strengths, and God-given gifts. We’ve talked about how putting our faith in action can look like caring for God’s creation and making sure everyone has a place in God’s church. Today, we have Jonathan Gray, from Trials for Hope to share how his faith has inspired him to help others in God-sized ways in greater Cleveland. Trials for Hope is a non-profit that focuses on delivering dignity and hope to those in need through wholesome food, personal care items, and warmth to those in Greater Cleveland.
