Message by Josh Mutter – February 9, 2025
BIG IDEA: Happy people systematically give their lives away.
OBSERVATION 1: We will be unhappy when we are consumed with ourselves.
OBSERVATION 2: We can serve and volunteer our way to happiness.
1. Selfishness will not lead to happiness.
Galatians 5:19-21 (NIV) The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
2. Selflessness will lead to happiness.
Galatians 5:22-23 (NIV) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
