A sermon about Lack. As Bounty can tempt one to lose faith in God, so can Lack also cause one to stumble. MacDonald encourages the listener to trust in God, the Giver of Bounty as well as Lack. It is not in Things that salvation is found, but in relationship with the Good Father.
2011/07/27. MacDonald teaches that this commandment, given by our Lord Jesus, is the highest calling, save love of God, that humanity can attain to.
2011/07/13. “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" MacDonald describes these words not as indicating a moment of separation between the Son and the Father but rather as the moment of most complete union.
2011/07/01. A sermon about the Love of God. MacDonald describes the eschatological encounter with God's love as an encounter with fire. The Fire of God's Love is a fire that purges impurities and a fire that indwells. It is the presence of God.
