The Heart of a Mother, The Way of the King | Compassion Sunday & Mother’s Day

Happy Mother’s Day! Today, we celebrate the women who have nurtured, led, and loved us. But today is also a special "one-off" bridge message as we transition from our "Unstoppable Acts" series. In 2013, Pastor Tom traveled to Kenya—from the dense urban slums of Kiberra to the lush mountains above Lake Victoria. In this message, he shares a "hidden chapter" of his journey and how it fundamentally shifted his understanding of God’s heart for justice, generosity, and compassion. In this message, we explore: The Power of "Womb-Love": Understanding the Hebrew word rakhum (Compassion) and how God uses a mother’s heart to describe His own. The Speaking Stick: A lesson from the Maasai warriors on dignity and giving a voice to the silenced. Does it work? Looking at the 2013 study on how child sponsorship creates a lifelong "Solid Rock" of hope.
