    A woman gives her most valued asset for the purpose of worshiping Jesus. We must also give sacrificially in our worship.

    There’s no doubt that the topic of giving and anything related to our finances is uncomfortable. It’s uncomfortable for pastors and it’s uncomfortable for congregations.

    Hands open may be a handshake or a salute, signalling friendship or respect. Just as those gestures affirmed Saul, we also must approach others by leading them to safety and by affirming their potential.

Well, of course, it would mean different things for different kinds of open hands. There is more than one way to be ...read more
