A Gift To Belong :: The Belonging Project :: Alvin Brown

Most of us know what it feels like to want a place where we really fit — where we’re seen, known, and loved, not for what we can prove, but simply for who we are.

In this message, Pastor Alvin talks about how belonging isn’t earned. It isn’t something we hustle for or try to deserve. It’s something God invites us into, especially in the moments when life feels thin, overwhelming, or like we don’t have enough.

Looking at 2 Corinthians 8:1–15, we see a picture of people who lived out belonging in the most unlikely circumstances. 

Not from pressure. Not from performance. But from grace — the kind that reminds us we are not alone, and that we were created to be connected to God and to each other.

If you’ve ever wondered where you fit, questioned if you matter, or felt like you’ve come up short, this message is for you.
