Ps Carla speaks this week about being consumed or being a consumer, as part of the We Love Family series on FC Values. As a family, we're responsible for one another, it isn't just about ourselves. It's not just about our family as in the people that we're related to or that live in our house.

We are all responsible for the well-being and the spiritual growth of our church family. This involves making disciples and considering where we want to plant our lives.

Ps Carla continues to speak about here we plant our lives in the church as a whole and what this means in terms of Kingdom living. How can the love of God be seen in us if we fail to act when our bothers and sisters are in need and we are in a position to help them?

She then goes on to speak about us as consumers - coming into the church family to receive, or being totally consumed by the love of God that every aspect of our life is oriented around the Father.

Using the parable of the talents and many more scriptures, Ps Carla illustrates how we can become fully consumed by God in order to take on more responsibility in His House in a fully selfless manner. Let us use the gifts we have been given for His glory and the benefit of others in His House.
