Generous Living: To Whom Much Is Given… | Rev. Vicki Harrison and New Hope

Sunday Worship
Written By New Hope

What does it really look like to live generously in everyday life?

In this heartfelt and powerful panel message, To Whom Much Is Given…, Pastor Vicki Harrison leads a conversation with five faithful New Hope members—Katie Mackey, Cecil Cadwallader, Michael Heaton, Bobby Lain, and Mary Barrow—about their journeys into tithing, stewardship, and joyful generosity.

Each story reveals something deeper: generous living isn’t about wealth—it’s about surrender. It’s about trusting God with what He’s already entrusted to us. And it’s about taking Jesus at His word in 2 Corinthians 9:6–15: “God loves a cheerful giver.”

"Words Matter: Taming the Tongue” | Rev. Vicki Harrison
"Words Matter: Taming the Tongue” | Rev. Vicki Harrison

James 3 opens with one of the most arresting images in the New Testament: a small rudder steering a great ship. A tiny spark setting an entire forest ablaze. The tongue. In this message from the Words Matter series, Rev. Vicki Harrison opens James 3 to explore why the words we speak are not a minor issue — they reveal the state of our hearts, they wound or they heal, and they cannot be tamed by willpower alone. Only the gospel reaches deep enough.

"Let The Lion Roar: In Pursuit” | Rev. Vicki Harrison

New Hope opens its new series in the book of Amos with a message titled "In Pursuit." Amos begins with God roaring like a lion — not in delight, but in righteous anger over injustice. The big question driving the whole series: does God care about injustice? The answer this Sunday is a clear yes — God is not silent; He is in pursuit.

"God’s Love for Animals” | Rev. Vicki Harrison
"God’s Love for Animals” | Rev. Vicki Harrison

What can a glass frog, a blobfish, a whale shark, and a platypus teach us about God? More than you'd expect.

"Set Apart: Inner Holiness” | Rev. Vicki Harrison
"Set Apart: Inner Holiness” | Rev. Vicki Harrison
