from Southside Church · host southsidelife.com
Something happens to a lot of people after they've spent time in church. They go from being amazed at God's love to quietly annoyed at his low standards. From "I can't believe Jesus saved me" to "I don't really believe Jesus would save them."It's not a new problem. It happened in the early church. It happened to Jonah. And if we're honest, it happens to us.This message follows the story of Saul in Acts chapter 9 and asks a simple but important question: what keeps someone amazed? Pastor Mike draws from scripture, a story about twin brother maggots, and a hero of his own named Uncle Nick to remind us that grace is the whole point. It was never brains and personality. It was always Jesus.Nothing you could do would make him love you more. Nothing you've done makes him love you less. That's the kind of love worth staying amazed by.
