"How to Enjoy God's World God's Way" by Hiram Kemp

May 17, 2026 - Sunday AM Sermon This episode explores how to avoid the two common extremes in Christian living — full-on worldliness and monastery-style separatism — and instead embrace a third, biblical way of enjoying God's world. Hiram walks listeners through key passages from Ecclesiastes and other Scripture to show how believers can live joyfully and faithfully: enjoy your work, savor food and drink, accept your portion, cultivate relationships, trust life's seasons, rejoice in youth, and receive life as a gift. Along the way the episode references passages in Genesis, Psalms, Proverbs, John, Acts, Paul's letters, and wisdom from writers like Marilynne Robinson to illustrate how creation, vocation, and ordinary pleasures point to God's goodness. The episode concludes with an invitation to respond to the gospel and practical encouragement to live as stewards who enjoy God's gifts while keeping an eternal perspective.   Duration 35:33
