Episode Synopsis


In our journey of faith, we often overlook the profound significance of our weekly offering. It's not just about paying bills; it's a spiritual act that shapes our entire lives. The story of David refusing to offer something that cost him nothing reminds us that true giving involves sacrifice. Our offering is a reflection of God's boundless generosity towards us, from the beauty of creation to the ultimate gift of Jesus Christ. As we give, we're called to be 'living sacrifices,' allowing our generosity to extend beyond Sunday morning into every aspect of our lives. This act of giving helps reset our hearts and minds, reminding us to live generously in all areas, even when it's challenging. By embracing this spiritual practice, we align ourselves more closely with God's generous nature and find transformation in our daily lives.00:00 Introduction00:45 Scripture Reading: 2 Samuel Chapter 24  verses 18-2502:38 Scripture Reading: Romans Chapter 12 12  verses 1-2105:35 Sermon: Sharing Our Gifts21:53 Pastoral Prayer29:28 ClosingPastor Kevin Rutledge
