Why are so many of us sensitive about the matter of money and giving to the church? God intends for us to have freedom in our generosity. In this message from 2 Corinthians 8, Pastor Lutzer identifies the motivation for God's people to be generous. We have to receive a gift before we can give one.

In this episode of The Creative Connection, Ed Young explores the concept of "simplexity"—the ability to make complex life decisions simple by aligning our "yes" with God's "yes," emphasizing the importance of prioritizing a committed relationship with Jesus, living with clear yes-or-no convictions based on scripture, and actively serving within the church community.

In a world of distractions, Christians must fix their focus on knowing Christ and His Word. Today, hear about Sinclair Ferguson's daily devotional podcast and book, Things Unseen, created to help God's people look to the Lord and live by faith.
