What My Mother Taught Me: About Seasons of Life

They ignored you when you were down. Now they need a favor. What you do next matters more than you think.

Ever wonder what earned David, of all people, the title "a man after God's own heart"? Or why God gave more of Genesis to Joseph than to anyone else? Pastor Steve Cioccolanti, who watched his own mother live one principle for nearly forty years, found the same thread running through both men, through a Silicon Valley lab where engineers drove across town at night to fix a competitor's problem, and through a young Steve Jobs looking up a legend in the phone book.

This is a one-point Mother's Day message, and the point is for everyone: how you treat people in trouble decides something about your own future you may not have considered.

"You know what the problem with you is? You love your enemies."

If someone in your life is down right now, this teaching is for you. Watch it and decide today who you will be to them.
