Watch- April 23, 2020

Watch author, New Monastic, peacemaker, and speaker Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove in Prosperity vs. Abundance from The Work of the People. In this video, Wilson-Hartgrove talks about the abundance of manna in God's new economy.

After watching the video, discuss these questions:

The Israelites were hungry and complaining. They were â€œhangryâ€! Have you ever experienced this feeling? How did you treat those around you?
What are you complaining about right now? How is complaining helping you?
Is God watching over you? How do you know that God is watching over you?
