New Life Church in Cupertino
Soul Care | Week #7
Many Americans live very close to their limits with time, finances, and relationships. This impacts our souls in many ways including increasing our stress and hurting our relationships, while distracting us from what is most important. Having a lack of margin also impacts our relationship with God because there's a connection between our willingness to create margin and our faith. Join us for Church Online as we look at why margin is important to having a healthy soul and how to add it to our lives. You can join us each Sunday at 10am through http://www.nlnc.online.church.

MARGIN
The space between our current pace and our limit
Without margin in our lives, we can all fall into traps.

SERIES RECAP
How is my soul?
We naturally drift away from each other and drift toward isolation & loneliness.
Soul care moves us toward community.
If you deal with anxiety, depression, or any mental health issues...
#1 You are not alone.
#2 You are not unspiritual.
#3 You live in a culture that over consumes.
Caring for our souls means we can bring our anxiety to God.
