Tasks vs. Relationships

Chad Braymer, our missionary to Costa Rica, is our guest speaker this week. During his initial time in Costa Rica, Chad's biggest takeaway has been the emphasis placed on relationships by the Costa Rican people. Teaching from Ephesians 5:15-16, Chad's challenge for us is to make the best use of the time God gives us as we build relationships with those around us. By avoiding a task-driven mentality, we can focus on the people we interact with and introduce Christ into the relationship as we seek to change lives with the gospel.
