Episode 435: No Gift is Too Small
from Pursuing God with Gene Appel · host Gene Appel
The gifts the wise men brought were quite extravagant. By contrast, Joseph and Mary gave only two pigeons to celebrate the birth of their son. The wise men gave out of their abundance, Joseph and Mary gave out of their poverty. Yet both were equally honoring to God. Gifts that honor Jesus represent both planning and proportion. In today’s episode, Gene encourages us that God is not impressed by large numbers; he is impressed with proportion. He measures generosity based on the measure of sacrifice.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside’s conviction that God’s grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God’s presence and activity in your life.
