Rest, Responsibility, and Relationship | Pastor Melo Sauval | 06.01.2025
• Melo Sauval • Series: In The Beginning
This week we hear from Pastor Melo Sauval as we continue our teaching series in the book of Genesis: In the Beginning. In this message from Genesis 2:1–25, we explore how God sets the foundation for human flourishing through three essential gifts—rest, responsibility, and relationship. We’re reminded that rest isn’t something we earn; it’s something we’re invited into. From the beginning, God models rest, gives purpose through work, and designs us for connection—not isolation. “Rest is not a reward for finishing your to-do list. It’s a rhythm that flows from the heart of God.” From Sabbath to stewardship to companionship, Genesis 2 shows us a God who provides not only creation—but meaning within it. ⸻ We hope that this resource complements being in a community with a local gospel-centered church when unable to attend in person. Our mission is to glorify God and expand His family by making disciples! If you are a part of One Family Church, we encourage you to please know that although these sermon videos are a good supplement while traveling or unable to be in person, they are simply that—supplements. We are excited for you to come back and be a part of our in-person community when you are ready, because we know the Lord calls us to be a community. If you want to know more about who we are, please check us out on our website or on our social channels. Each week we will be posting sermons that were preached here in person on Sunday mornings.
