God's Grace for an Imperfect Church | The Grace and Accountability of Giving - Season 4, Episode 115

from Eastland Baptist Messages · host Benjamin Siens

Is Christian giving just a financial duty, or is it something more? We often struggle to connect our professed love for God with how we use our money. Examining Paul's instructions for the collection in Jerusalem from 1 Corinthians 16:1-4, Pastor Dorrell argues that Christian giving transcends mere obligation. He presents generosity as a grace—a disposition of the heart, an act of worship, and a tangible expression of love modeled on Christ’s own self-giving. This act of being a help not only meets practical needs but also creates gratitude that glorifies God. Listeners are challenged to shift their perspective and see their resources as a primary opportunity to be a help in the world.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Women with Dyslexia Podcast: Living the Gospel with Power Hope B This podcast is designed for women with dyslexia who believe that God can do something new. The Apostle Paul says that we are transformed by renewing our minds to do what pleases the LORD, which is His will. When our minds are renewed (neuroscientists call this neuroplasticity), we are transformed. This podcast will contain short biblical messages designed to replace our old negative thinking with the truth found in God’s word. It is devoted to encouraging and inspiring adult women with dyslexia by listening to biblical truths that will uplift and challenge them to find a place for dyslexia in their lives and let Christ take center stage of their lives. To benefit from these short yet powerful messages, I recommend making these podcasts part of your morning and evening time with the Lord. Thank you for joining me.
