1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 What Does It Mean to Pass Your Faith On to the Next Generation? &amp;nbsp; Pastor Julie Hamilton opens the Legacy Series with a question that's both personal and urgent: Are we just living in the present — enjoying what God is doing right now — or are we intentionally preparing for what comes next? Using Psalm 78:1–7, she frames the church as an extended family, walks through the different roles that make a healthy family function, and introduces the concept of the maintainer — someone who invests in the health, stability, and future of the family by preserving its values and preparing others to carry them forward. The challenge isn't for a specific age group. A 28-year-old can spiritually grandparent a 6-year-old. A 16-year-old can mentor a 45-year-old new believer. In the family of God, roles are determined by stage, not age. She closes with a personal story — a job description she wrote as a new mom over twenty years ago, and the very different one she wrote recently — and a direct challenge for every listener: write your job description in the family of God. Not a title. Your function. Your contribution. Because faith was never meant to stop with you. This is Week 1 of the Legacy Series at New Hope Church.
