Next Steps July 2026
Next Step Video Message
In this month’s Next Steps video, David and Natalie explore the important difference between carrying someone’s burden and carrying someone’s responsibility. Drawing from Galatians 6, they unpack how healthy relationships require both compassion and boundaries — knowing when to step in and support someone through a heavy season, and when to allow others to take ownership of the things God has entrusted to them. Through practical examples from family, leadership, and everyday life, this conversation challenges us to examine what we are carrying, what we are helping others carry, and what we may need to release.
- Burdens are meant to be shared; loads are meant to be carried.
- Helping others grow means supporting, not taking over.
- Healthy boundaries create space for responsibility, maturity, and transformation.
Join the conversation: What is one thing you may be carrying that God is asking you to share, or one responsibility you need to stop carrying for someone else?
