Interruptions

In this week’s sermon at Elevate Church, Pastor Thomas-Steele shares a powerful message about how hurry is killing our capacity for community. Using real-life moments from parenting and biblical examples like Jairus, the bleeding woman, and the Good Samaritan, this message challenges us to slow down and make room for what matters most—people.

Through the example of Jesus—who was often busy, but never hurried—we’re reminded that love allows for interruptions. When we’re always in a rush, we risk missing the very moments God puts in our path to love and care for others.

📖 Scripture Focus: Mark 5:21-36, Luke 10:25-37

🎯 Key Takeaway: “Don’t be so busy doing the work of God that you forget to show the love of God.”

Whether it’s parenting, pastoring, or simply being present with someone in need, this message is a call to live like Jesus—with love, margin, and availability.
