SERMON TEXT: 2 Corinthians 8:8-15
SERMON TITLE: "Why We Give" // Tim Latham
THE New SERMON SERIES
A couple of weeks ago, when studying the relationship between David and Nathan – we talked about how grace and sin are indelibly intertwined. Over the next 4 weeks, we will see a similar relationship at play between grace and generosity. We will be discussing generosity and stewardship by walking through chapters 8 and 9 of Paul’s Second letter to the Corinthian church. This month, we’ll delve into details on the Macedonian Example, the biblical tradition of “first fruits,” as well as the roles of joy, humility, and gratitude in giving. But most importantly, we’ll see how God’s grace underpins all of this. As we journey through this text and offer up our own faith commitments, we will be challenged in terms of our giving – not only our finances but also our time and talents. Yet, at the end, I believe our words will echo the Apostle Paul’s grateful celebration: “Thanks be to God and His Indescribable Gift.”

Food Pantry Collection
We continue to collect pantry items that are donated to the Glenmoore Food Pantry which is served by the Salvation Army. If anyone is curious how the food pantry hands out food, the folks working at the food pantry put together boxes of a variety of items for each family to pick up. Patrons using the food pantry do not select what items they will receive. Thank you to everyone who has donated... for your generosity to this mission!
