Reach
Reach is a vision for Citylight’s future and how the generosity of God’s people will play a part in that.
In the final sermon for our Reach series, Pastor Matt walks through the concluding section of 2 Corinthians 9. In 2 Cor 9:11-15, we learn that we should Give so that others will give thanks to God. How does that work?
1. Your giving supplies needs
2. Your giving supplies more than needs
3. Your giving is His gift.
