What’s the best gift you’ve ever received? If you’re a follower of Jesus, the answer is the grace of God. And if you’re not a follower of Jesus? Well, have you ever wondered why Christians make such a big deal about grace?

Join us as we continue to explore the Apostle Paul’s brilliant letter to the church in Ephesus, exploring in this sermon the radical gift of God’s grace.

Could it be that the Son of God also longed for those places where He could hear the Father whispering to Him: I am with you.

I struggle to hear God's voice. But I regularly hear it most in 2 places. From His Word. And from His people. And if you feel like you’re drowning in the chaos. You are not alone. And you need it, too. His Word. And His people. 

Imagine the chaos. Maybe it’s a relationship. Maybe it’s your cubicle. The next doctor's visit. Do you see it? Do you feel the storm?

I want you to hear these words. As you imagine yourself in that place. Jesus says to you: I’m here. Don’t be afraid. I’m here. Don’t be afraid. I’m here. Don’t be afraid.

And why, why is it never too early to remember your Creator? Because time is coming for you. And as uncomfortable as that makes us, or as painful as that may be, the better we are at reckoning with that idea, no matter how old or young we are…the better we are with facing it head on, with confronting it, owning it …the wiser we will be today.

There’s nothing really new in the world. The moment progress is felt, the same pains, the same injustices, the same wickedness rear their smug faces.  We take two steps forward and two steps back. Some want to say things are always getting worse while others are saying things are getting better, and then the weather changes and so does both of their stances.
 
What do we do when it feels like making the world a better place feels so hopeless? Join us as the seasoned wisdom of Ecclesiastes guides us along the way.

The Bible teaches that God made a world of abundance. That if we look at the Garden, you and I were created for a world without lack, where we had everything we needed and more.

And even though our world is now broken, and our attachments are now broken, we can still enjoy God’s gift with gratitude. This is the theme of these final verses. Eat, drink, and be merry. Enjoy your work. And enjoy His gifts.

Instead of gratitude we think: I worked hard for that stuff! I earned it. I’m entitled to it. Which only feeds the dragon inside you. Instead, we need to learn to say thank you. And say it all the time. 

Build it into your day. Build it into your life.

What happens when all you ever wanted is not enough? What do you do when the thing that gives you meaning and satisfaction goes up in smoke? The Old Testament book of Ecclesiastes forces us to look at our futile attempts to find meaning and satisfaction. It pokes holes in our logic, unmasks our false pretenses, and forces us to consider things we would rather not. But after deconstructing our hopeless attempts to find meaning, the book of Ecclesiastes offers us the one thing that can truly satisfy.
