Impossible Givers
Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve seen that we are givers because we bear the image of a God who is essentially a giver. But God is infinite, while we are finite. So is it really possible to give like God gives? We’ll explore two sins that inhibit our giving, and see how the Spirit overcomes our Sin to make us into the generous givers we were created to be!
From Series: "Free of Charge"
We live in a world where nothing is free. In a culture that so lacks grace, how can we be the generous, loving people we were created to be? In this series, based on the work of theologian Miroslav Volf, we'll explore the surprising link between giving and forgiving. Join us as we find surprising freedom in generosity and grace!

This is the season of the year when people start to think about monsters – ghosts and goblins and things that go bump in the night. We normally don’t think of monsters having anything to do with the Church, but we’d be wrong. The reason people tell monster stories is that monsters are a safe way to talk about things we’re not ready to admit about ourselves. We don’t want to see ourselves as selfish, unforgiving, ill-tempered. So we tell stories. We create monsters.
