The Riches of His Grace
Paul's letter to the Ephesians makes known t he riches of God's grace in Jesus, the Beloved. Of infinitely greater value than any earthly treasure, the riches of God's amazing love, mercy, and forgiveness are freely given through faith in Jesus. This is not something which can be earned or merited; nor is it something which we deserve. The riches of God's grace are given to us as a gift through the cleansing blood of Jesus. Rather than hoarding this incredible treasure and keeping it all to ourselves, our calling is to share with others what we ourselves have received so they too will be blessed with the riches of God's grace in Christ Jesus.

What Jesus Said About Forgiveness
Today, we continue on our “Jesus Said” series and begin a short section on “What Jesus said About Personal Relationships” today ---- forgiveness in Matthew 18:21-22. Then Jesus told a story about a king who forgave his servant an enormous debt. But that same servant turned around and put his servants in prison for not paying a small debt they owed him. This morning I’m going to focus on the lessons of forgiveness and less on the parable.

The Cost of Freedom: Sacrifice
Caleb was one of only two who proclaimed that God could bring His people into the promised land despite the strength of the people already there. Still, he had to wait 40 years, while the unbelieving generation wandered in the wilderness, before he could receive his reward.

Blameless
Life shames in so many ways. But it's not necessary to live with that shame. God wants to take away our shame and makes us shameless. When we accept and begin to live out the truth of his grace, we can live more boldly, more confidently, shamelessly!

Sunday Sermon for Week 27-09
A story of chances and second chances, Manasseh did evil in the eyes of the Lord. He followed the detestable practices of the Nations that the Lord had driven out before the Israelites, but when Manasseh finally sought the favor of the Lord his God and humbled himself before the Lord, God restored Manasseh to his kingdom. God will forgive and give a second chance even to a man as evil as Manasseh.
