Weekly Update - 2/16


THE MICAH MANDATE
(Micah 6:8)
Outline:
I.  What God has done to His People (6:2-5)
II.  God expects in Return (6:6-8)
III.  What God Cannot tolerate (6:9-12)
IV.   What God is moved to do (6:13-16)

The Micah Mandate:
1.  Act justly
2.  Love mercy 
3.  Walk humbly

Ethical behavior is far more important than the mechanics of sacrificial rites.

Application:
1.  Create a "TOV" culture.  (TOV means "do good and be good".)
2.  Commit a random act of kindness.
3.  Volunteer!
4.  Become involved in a cause.
