Luke 7:36-50 -- God’s grace is favor we didn't earn. The more we realize our sin, the more we appreciate God's grace. In truth, God's grace was bigger than you thought. When Jesus Christ died on the cross April 3, AD 33 He took all of your sins upon Himself-- all-- not most, not just the ones you confess, not just the ones that are socially acceptable, but all of your sins. The more you appreciate God's grace, the more love you show to God.Listen now: Podcast Powered By Podbean(c) 2008 Wayne Stiles

- Malachi 4 - The last word of the English Old Testament is “curse.” What began with a blessing in Genesis ends with a curse in Malachi. But before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes, God promised to send a messenger, an Elijah, who would turn the hearts of people to God. When John the Baptist came, he pointed to Jesus Christ. The central question that ends Malachi’s book remains the question Jesus asked when He came: “When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” (Luke 18:8).Listen now: Podcast Powered By Podbean (c) 2008 Wayne Stiles
