This message is based on 2 Corinthians 9:6-15, where the Apostle Paul teaches on generosity, not as pressure or obligation, but as something that flows from the heart and reflects the grace of God in our lives. In this passage, we see that generosity is more than giving; it is sowing. What we place into God’s hands is not lost; it is multiplied. We are reminded that God provides for us in all things, not only to meet our needs, but so that we might abound in every good work. And as we give, something beautiful happens: needs are met, thanksgiving rises to God, faith is strengthened, and hearts are drawn together. Ultimately, generosity points us back to the greatest gift of all, God’s indescribable gift to us in Christ.
In this message we travel to the heart of the Sermon on the Mount, which is contained in 3 chapters of the book of Matthew. In Matthew 6:19-24 Jesus centers on a matter of great importance...will God or possessions rule my life? Whichever one gains mastery in my life will determine my ultimate destiny! Jesus ends with a very uncomfortable truth - there is no middle ground between the two. We learn from Jesus what a life devoted to Him will be like, when we choose to serve God with our treasure.
Have you ever looked at something in front of you and thought, “This just isn’t enough”? This message begins our Loaves & Fishes series in John 6:1-13, the feeding of the 5,000, the only miracle recorded in all four Gospels during Jesus’ ministry. The disciples saw a problem they couldn’t solve, a boy offered something that seemed too small, and Jesus did something only He could do. This message is about trusting Jesus with what we have, even when it doesn’t feel like enough. Because the question is not, “Is this enough?” but “What will Jesus do with what I place in His hands?”
