Episode Synopsis

Maximus, the first known bishop of the Italian city Turin, penned these words late in the 4th century: “Rightly, he is sad, who is not drawn to payment by love, but forced by fear. A Christ debtor, then is joyful, and Caesar’s sad, because love urges, the one to payment, and punishment constrains the other; the one is invited by rewards, the other compelled by penalties.” Christian generosity is not motivated by law but by love and can therefore be undertaken with cheerfulness. This will be the focus of Pastor Kevin’s message this Sunday from 2 Corinthians 9, as he continues his series, Sufficient.
