Compassion Immersion - Week 1

WestGate Church Teaching

The early church faced tremendous difficulties. There were racial divisions, financial shortages and massive political fighting. In some ways, the same problems that plague our modern society. And yet this rag-tag group of ordinary people changed the world, in part because of their commitment to follow and live a life like Jesus of self-sacrifice and compassion. The early church cared about all the lost, hurting, broken and marginalized people - even risking their own lives, reputation and jobs to do so. And this is our invitation today, too. In the first week of Compassion Immersion 2022, we take time to hear stories from our Global Compassion Pastor Keivan Tehrani about the incredible work God is doing around the world. Stories of forgiveness, healing, provision and redemption. And in the process, we get to celebrate an extraordinary God who still works in and through ordinary people to do the extraordinary.
