    This sermon is about how we need to tell our loved ones what they mean to us while they are still with us.

    A TOUCH OF LOVE Text: John 12:1-8 One of the songs of my list of favorites would have to be James Taylor’s "Shower The People".

    You can’t outgive God. He’s way ahead of everyone but he’s wanting us to share in his likeness and experience the fullness of grace. Part of that comes through being a giver like him.

    Chapters 8-9 center on the subject of the grace of giving. A story was circulated some time ago about Arnold Palmer’s visit with a certain king. This king was impressed with Arnold Palmers golf record and as they talked the king wanted to give Mr. Palmer a gift. He tried to refuse at first, ...read more
