Pastor Dawn asked several speakers to share 10 minutes each on Liberty’s core value of Connection to God and to each other.

Susan Dudley spoke on being an encourager with a love connection to God and a deep desire to help others get close and connected to God, too. You get to know someone by spending time with them, and that’s how we get close to Jesus. Susan illustrated with magnets how God wants to connect with us and the devil brings a lie to repel us from God. An interesting point is that God is eternally connected in the Trinity in the closest relationship ever known. He created us because He wants to connect with us, and we are made in His image to value and thrive in connection.

Jessica Dail explored several questions: What connects you to God? What connects God to you? How can you increase the connection and bring others into your connection with God? Jessica pinpointed how to make the most of your connections, and one key is being grateful! It’s important in all your connections to protect your connection to God, because those people are in your life for them to get connected to God not to distract you from God!

Mariela Fernandez highlighted that the first connection is God and Christ and Holy Spirit. Each person’s first connection is to God, because you were “in Him” before the world began. It’s not hard to connect to God because His yoke is easy! God called you to be a conduit (of His love) and a connector!
