Jesus was homeless.


Hope you enjoyed our discussion this morning on what Woodmont is doing in response to benevolence and learning the facts of homelessness in Nashville.

Thanks to our guests - Dr. Jon Roebuck and Heather Rippetoe, training coordinator for National Healthcare for the Homeless Council.  We appreciate Heather's perspective as a Christian seeking God's direction in this area.  I have noticed that I now see the issues of homelessness in scripture everywhere.  Jon's sermon this morning about the Prodigal Son made me think that we are all homeless until we come into a life-changing relationship with our Father who has many rooms in his home prepared for us.

Join us next Sunday for more discussion on the Christian perspective of homelessness.  Remember we are seeking God's direction for our individual actions and/or class actions.

The books that she shared with us are Souls in the Hands of a Tender God and Irresistable Revolution.  If you are interested in a book study, please let us know next week.

Can't wait to see you and continue the conversation next Sunday.  Remember it's Friends Day.  That means Pancakes at 8:45 a.m.  and Class at 9:15 a.m.

I love you all!!!
