1 Corinthians 7:1-17 To give parents a heads up, Pastor Ryan discusses the role sex plays within the covenant of marriage so if you are not ready to have these sorts of conversations with your kids, please watch/listen to this sermon without them. The post God's Good Gifts appeared first on Elim Evangelical Free Church on South Hill, Puyallup, Washington.

The sermon explores the promise of a crown of life for those who steadfastly endure trials, emphasizing that God cannot be tempted with evil and that true temptations originate from our own desires, leading to sin and ultimately death. It highlights God as the unchanging source of all good and perfect gifts, bringing forth believers through his word and establishing them as the firstfruits of his new creation, ultimately offering hope and eternal life through Christ.

Raising children who love Jesus requires giving them the right gifts. Instead of fostering entitlement through unearned rewards, undeserved praise, or inappropriate freedoms, parents should focus on three biblical gifts from Deuteronomy 6. First, provide a Christ-centered community where children can form relationships with others seeking God. Second, establish high spiritual standards that challenge children to grow in faith beyond worldly achievements. Third, model and encourage a genuine faith worth sharing with others. By prioritizing these gifts over worldly success, parents can nurture children who truly love Jesus with all their heart, soul, and strength.

“If you, then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him?” — Matthew 7:11In Week 10 of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Chris Zauner unpacks Jesus' powerful teaching on prayer in Matthew 7:7–11, inviting us to rethink our relationship with God through the lens of trust, boldness, and sonship.

What if asking—really asking—is the most powerful thing you can do? Jesus invites us to stop performing, stop manipulating, and start living with honesty, humility, and bold trust. Discover how asking can change your relationship with God… and everyone else. This Sabbath we reflect on Jesus' words in Matthew 7:7-12 —words that help us understand how to live the ways of the Kingdom of God.

Pastor John Aldridge continues teaching on the Giver of All Good Gifts

In this sermon, Simon Pranaitis lays the groundwork for a biblical view of work, showing that labor is not a curse but a good gift from God. Drawing from Genesis 1 and 2, he explains how work and money are part of God's original design and highlights their redemptive purpose. The biblical view of work helps believers reframe their understanding of vocation and provision. ★ Support this podcast ★

April 20, 2025 was Easter -- Resurrection Day!1 Corinthians 15:50-58 shows us why the resurrection is important and how it can give us hope.As you prepare for the message, please read the passage and ask yourself, "Why is the resurrection important?""How should the truth of the resurrection give me hope?"

In this sermon we talk about greeting/welcoming others to church. With Easter next week (and higher church attendance), we want to be prepared to welcome believers and unbelievers who join us that day...even those who maybe different from us. Beyond Easter, we should think about what our church will look like in the future. How can we serve others and not just do what makes us most comfortable? Passages like Romans 15:1-7 and James 2:1-9 will help us.As you prepare for the message, please read the passage and ask yourself, "What can I do to help others feel welcome at our church?"

“If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” (Matthew 7:11) The Lord took for granted that parents know how to give good gifts to their children. We must make sure that is what we are doing. Do we give them what the Lord says we should?

In this sermon, Pastor John talks about God's Good Gift of Growth. God expects us to grow spiritually and His Holy Spirit produces that growth in our lives. But it is not automatic; growth happens when we specifically apply God's Word to our lives.As you prepare for the message, please read the passage and ask yourself,"Is growing spiritually important to me?""How do I specifically apply God's Word to my life?"

1 Timothy 4:1-5 Beware of the danger of departing from the Gospel through the twisting of the truth.

In this sermon we will talk about what the Bible says about gender. God created gender, specifically two genders. Both men and women have equal value, but God has given them different roles. So, we will celebrate gender and discuss how both men and women are needed in the church today.As you prepare for the message, please read the passage and ask yourself "Do I consider my male-ness or female-ness to be a gift of God?""How does my gender enable me to uniquely serve the Lord?"

In today’s devotional, we explore Matthew 7:11, which reminds us of God’s incredible generosity. We reflect on personal experiences of growing up with a mindset of earning everything and how that can shape our understanding of God’s gifts. We discuss the importance of accepting God’s good gifts without feeling the need to earn them, recognizing that He delights in blessing us simply because we are His children. Learn to increase your faith and trust that God wants to shower you with blessings! Join the Conversation:We want to hear from you! Do you try to earn good gifts from God? How can you accept God’s good gifts without feeling like you need to work for them? Share your thoughts and experiences with us on social media @LifeaudioNetwork or via email. Let’s support one another in embracing God’s generosity!

1 Peter 4:10-11

In this sermon we will be starting a new sermon series about the good gifts that God gives us and the way we should use them to honor Him. We'll look at how God entrusts us to be good stewards of the resources that He gives us. With the rapid rise of online gambling, we need to commit to use what God has given to us in a way that glorifies Him.As you prepare for the message, please read the passage and ask yourself,"What resources has God given to me?""How do I make decisions about how to use those resources?"

Join us as we continue our MAKE ROOM series and rediscover how the simple joys of life—creativity, play, and beauty—are more than a way to escape but rather an invitation to experience God's delight, presence, and abundant grace.

Thursday of the First Week of Lent

James has already told us that God cannot be tempted by evil nor does he tempt us.  God is never the giver of evil and always a giver of God. This is where James goes next in his field manual of authentic faith.  As we look at James 1:16-18 we will see that every good gift comes from an unchangingly good God whose goodness is most powerfully seen in the good news of the gospel.  These three verses have massive implications in how we understand who we are in Christ and how this understanding impacts the way we live out our life in Christ.

If you are a follower of Jesus you have been given special ____________. [2 Timothy 1:6] This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when I laid my hands on you.

In the 9th message of our "Unveiling Yahweh" series, we will be looking at God as a giver.  Our fallen nature makes us quick to malign God's character. When life doesn't give us what we want, we call God a killjoy. If providence steals a cherished person or possession from us, we see Him a taker.
