    Chosen In Christ--But For What?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 2, 2024
     | 380 views

    The choice is tied up with the Father’s decision to adopt us as sons and daughters, siblings by adoption with His only-begotten Son. For what purpose? We are so favored so that we might praise the glory of God’s grace granted us through the beloved Son, His life, passion, death and Resurrection.

    Fifteenth Sunday in Course 2024 St. Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians anchors our Scriptures today. Paul is acting as a prophet/teacher for the Church at Ephesus but the universal feel of this letter suggests to us that it’s more like an encyclical or circular letter for all of the churches in that ...read more

    This is message for an outdoor, outreach service in downtown Toronto. It's a message about the amazing and lavish love of God that will change our lives now and for eternity, if we say yes to God's offer of salvation in Christ.

    July 14, 2024 Message for Outdoor Service - The Lavish Grace of God There are a lot of really stunning passages of scripture in the Bible. There are so many, that I probably could not choose if I had to which is my favorite. But today’s passage does come very close. There are many ways to read ...read more

    Don’t waste your life in secret, cheap acts designed to get the praise of people. Instead, give it all away in exposed, expensive, extravagant acts of devotion to our Lord, because that is what worship is all about.

    An old farmer went to the city one weekend and attended the big city church. He came home and his wife asked him how it was. “Well,” said the farmer, “It was good. They did something different, however. They sang praise choruses instead of hymns.” “Praise choruses,” said his wife, “What are ...read more

    The love of God is more than we can understand, but he has lavished it upon us! How do we understand that, how do we respond to that?

    How great the Fathers love; lavished! There are some truly magnificent things that can happen in a person’s life. The foundations of true friendship as you meet people for the first time and you know that there will be a bond between you. I have friends like this that after years we can get ...read more

    The Father's Lavish Love

    To help us understand the love the Father has for us so we will receive it (become adopted as a child in the family), return it, and share it (with our children).

    I remember the pastor of our church sharing one time that becoming a father was the greatest help for his theology, that is, for his understanding of God. He knew up here [pointing to head] that God loved him, but when he had a child he began to understand more in here [heart] that God has the ...read more

    The only place you will find true love is in Jesus!

    1. There are so many of us that before you became a Christian, you were a very mean, hateful, & hard person person. • Of all the words that someone would use to describe you (and me by the way), LOVE definitely wasn’t one of them. • But all that changed with Jesus Christ. We were born again and ...read more

    Just before the Passion of Christ, Mark tells us a story of extravagant love shown to Jesus by Mary who models for us the kind of love we should show to our Savior.

    The bad news and the good news from Psalm 103.

    This past week I celebrated a birthday, my birthday – 29 years old and I had a lot of wonderful people who were really quick to remind me that it was one year away from 30. So thanks so much for that encouragement. 361 more days until 30 years old. Now some of you are thinking- “Big deal. ...read more

    We have good reasons to praise the Lord.

    Today we’re starting a four-part series on “The Lavishness of God.” To lavish means to be extravagant; to pour out; to shower. And God throughout the pages of His Word is described as that kind of a God…one who pours out to His people; one who gives. One who displays His grace and His ...read more

    David describes our God as covenant keeping and compassion giving.

    I want to take you back to the time of Moses - when Moses led the people, the nation of Israel, out of Egypt. You remember the story. They were under slavery, under Pharaoh, and the Egyptians and Moses was called by God to lead these people, God’s people, out of slavery. So he goes and Pharaoh ...read more

    Gifts For The Lord

    Contributed by Robert Dovenmuehle on Dec 25, 2012
     | 4,775 views

    The magi brought extravagant gifts for the baby Jesus even though they could not know what this child would do. We know that Jesus the Christ is God and saves us from our sin. What gifts do we bring to our Lord?

    Today we observe Epiphany, the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles, with the visitation of the magi to the baby Jesus. The visit of the magi is probably the most misunderstood part of the Christmas story. The magi are often depicted in nativity scenes as if they arrived for the birth of Jesus, ...read more

    The whole universe will praise God Almighty, and you can too in spite of your circumstances.

    We’re finishing our walk through Psalm 103 where we’re talking about the lavishness of God – His extravagance…who He is, what He does. We’re looking at the last four verses of Psalm 103 today. This is a psalm of David and if you recall – let me refresh our memories – the Psalm starts out with ...read more

    God’s unconditional, forgiving, accepting love has caused God to take responsibility to save us. We take this lavish love and lavish that love onto others.

    Message 1 John 3:1-24 “Lavish Love Lavishly Shared” Here is a question for all of us, whether we are older or younger.
