"Abounding in the Grace of Giving"
Jan 19, 2025 • Clay Carlson
Based on 2 Corinthians 8, this sermon explores the grace of giving through the compelling example of the Macedonian churches and the ultimate sacrificial gift of Jesus Christ, opening with the moving story of missionary Jim Elliot who gave his life reaching the Auca tribe and whose words still ring true today: "He is no fool to give what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose." The message challenges believers to excel in the grace of giving not just from abundance but even in times of trial, following the example of those who gave sacrificially and joyfully for the sake of God's kingdom.
