In the second episode of the Last Call series, we'll look at God's complaint to the people. They were giving lame and sick lambs to be sacrificed. God pointed out that their governor would not accept such gifts, and he was far more important. What would it look like for us to give our time, talents, and treasures to God?

Amber talked about the book, "Gifted for More," by Dr. Bruce Becker. Visit our store to get a copy: https://timeofgrace.store/products/gifted-for-more

In the first episode of the Last Call series, we begin looking at the book of Malachi, the last book of the Old Testament. This is an argumentative book in which God offers several complaints. The people have become complacent in their relationship with God. This is God's call to repentance, not just for the people of Malachi's day but for us too.

In the third episode of the Abundantly More series, we talk about who God is and why it is important for us to remember that he is not a small God. He is the Creator-God, who made the universe and knows the stars by name. He knows us intimately too, more than we know ourselves. Knowing who God is can change our Christian walk.

Episode two in the Abundantly More series reminds us that words matter.

This is the first episode in the Abundantly More series that examines the characteristics of a life that brings glory to God. Most of us know there is something in our lives we really should address. Perhaps it's a tendency to eat or drink too much. Maybe we spend far too much time on our phones or in front of the TV. Change is hard, but staying in the same stuck situation might be even harder. What if there was a hack that made change a little easier? Would you give it a try?
