Pastor Timothy explores the idea of an indescribable gift, referencing 2 Corinthians 9:15, which states, "Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift". Pastor acknowledges the oxymoronic nature of trying to describe the indescribable and delves into the magnitude of this gift and what this gift brings.
Have you ever received such a wonderful gift that you found it hard to describe? In truth, all human gifts are describable and just because we lack the words to describe them doesn't make them indescribable. Dr. James Boice compares human gifts with the indescribable gift we received from our Heavenly Father at Christmas on The Bible Study Hour.

Our indescribable gift Pastor George Lehman 25 December – the day or date is not important? What is important is that it did happen. Psalm 118:22-24 - 22The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; 23the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes. 24 The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad. My scripture this morning is 2 Corinthians 9:15 (NIV). It's a short verse – only 8 words long. Paul says: “Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!” [Maar God sy dank vir sy onuitspreeklike gawe] Most of us have survived the shopping experience. Choosing Christmas gifts for those special people in our lives. Let me ask you: “have you ever received an “indescribable gift?” I thought about this - what kind of gift would it have to be, to be called “indescribable”? If you opened it, what would you say? Wow, it's beautiful, something you always wanted. Whatever the gift, what would make it an indescribable gift? There are many life tales of great gifts given to people: Mark Shuttleworth gave each one of his employees R1 Million. When he sold his company Joan Linden, a radio show host, featured some gift ideas: $300 000 for a gold and silver toilet seat inlaid with precious stones (R5.7 Million). “You could be King of your Castle on this seat”. $18 000 frisbee (R342000) $10 000 Yo-yo (R190000) $12 000 mouse trap (R228000) $27 000 pair of sunglasses (R513000) and then for grand parentsto buy for the new baby - $28 000 dummy (R532 000) boats and cars valued at billions of rand. I think these gifts stagger our imagination – don't they? But all these human gifts are very describable by someone. Paul at first talking about gifts in the passage of scripture in 2 Cor 9 – he is discussing human gifts. He commends them for their eagerness to help and for their generosity for giving so abundantly. If you sow sparingly, you will reap sparingly. If you sow generously, you will reap generously. The attention then goes to God's gift of sending Jesus. Paul has no words to describe this. All he says is: “Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift.” A gift beyond description. So many people, poets, musicians, painters and sculptors have tried to bring tribute and express this indescribable gift the person Jesus, the gift of God's love. Why does Paul call Jesus “INDESCRIBABLE”? I think there are at least 4 reasons I'm not trying to describe it, because I can't. But I want to stir your heart to focus afresh on “God's gift to you”. #1 Because of His nature How do you describe Jesus? What words would you choose? How do you describe God in flesh – reaching out to the hurting masses of humanity and being the 100% cure? John 10:10 (AMP) – The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). “God's love is not logical. It is unimaginable that God descended in His Son to bring salvation to ungrateful people. Jesus became what we are in order to make us what He is.” Isaiah said: He will be called Emmanuel (God with us); Paul said: We can't describe the “indescribable” gift The sms making its rounds lately reads as follows: He had no servants – yet they called Him MASTER No degrees – yet they called Him TEACHER No medicine – yet they called Him HEALER No army – yet the King's FEARED Him He won no military battles – yet He CONQUERED the world He committed no crime – yet they CRUCIFIED Him He was buried – yet He ROSE AND LIVES TODAY! The birth of Jesus brought God to man, BUT it took the cross of Jesus Christ to bring man to God. He is indescribable! #2 Because of His purpose in coming to earth What is the Christmas celebration [Kersfees vieringe] about after all? Not decorated trees, not presents, not holidays, not some overweight dude wearing red either. OUR GREATEST NEED: for HIS coming If our greatest need had been information, God would have sent us an educator; If our greatest need had been technology, God would have sent us a scientist; If our greatest need had been money, God would have sent us an economist; If our greatest need had been pleasure, God would have sent us an entertainer; The Answer is: Our greatest needwas forgiveness, so God sent us a Saviour – to bring hope to a lost, sinful world. God's gift is indescribable! #3 Because of the grace by which Jesus is given We buy gifts for people we know – like our wife and kids because it's kind of the right thing to do. Normally if people give us a gift, we feel obliged to give one back. We feel we must help the needy, the poor, because we have an obligation to them. This is what makes God so special – He doesn't owe us anything, in fact: Romans 5:8 (NIV) - But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. We deserved the WORST, but we got the BEST. A gift is not a gift if you pay for it – it's free by GRACE. Lastly, it's indescribable! #4 Because of His overwhelming [oorweldigende] effect on us The gifts you got for Christmas may be wonderful and you may be very thankful, BUT tomorrow you will still be the same – it will not change you. The Bible teaches that when we accept Jesus Christ, “The indescribable gift”, we can NEVER be the same again. Our sins are forgiven and forgotten. 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV) - “We're a brand-new person.” Let us thank God for this season as we celebrate “His indescribable gift”, JESUS, to a lost world. He became like us– that we might become like Him. He was rejected– that we might be accepted. He was condemned– that we might be forgiven. He was punished– that we might be pardoned. He suffered– that we might be strengthened. He was whipped– that we might be healed. He was hated– that we might be loved. He was crucified– that we might be justified. He was tortured– that we might be comforted. He died– that we might live. He went to hell– that we might go to Heaven. He endured what we deserved– that we might enjoy what only He deserves.

Katy Enrique is the Director of Marketing and Sales at the City Museum in St. Louis, MO. With a career rooted in the attractions industry, Katy's background includes significant experience at Six Flags, where she worked her way up through guest relations, special events, and public relations before transitioning to her current role at City Museum. Known for its unique blend of art, architecture, and play, the City Museum offers an indescribable experience that has captivated both locals and tourists alike. In this interview, Katy talks about describing the indescribable, seeking uniqueness, and how marketing impacts everything. Describing the Indescribable "When we moved here, everybody was like, 'Oh my gosh, your kids are at the perfect age to take them to City Museum.' And I'm like, 'What is that place?' And they were like, 'Nope, it can't be described, just go.'” Katy shares the challenge of conveying City Museum's essence, explaining that the museum isn't your typical museum. It's a place where art and adventure collide, and visitors are invited to explore with knee pads and headlamps. Katy highlights that marketing the museum involves tapping into user-generated content and social media, where guests share their unique experiences. This helps potential visitors grasp what the museum offers, even though words and pictures often fall short of encapsulating its true essence. Seeking Uniqueness "We started foundationally as an artist-built playground... it's an eclectic blend of many things from the city of St. Louis." Katy delves into the museum's commitment to uniqueness, not only in its attractions but also in how it engages with both visitors and employees. She notes that everything in the museum is built from interesting or repurposed materials, creating an environment unlike any other. This philosophy extends to their recruitment efforts, where the museum markets itself as a fun and different place to work. Whether it's a unique slide made from reclaimed materials or hosting special adult-only events, City Museum thrives on offering something visitors and employees can't find anywhere else. Marketing Impacts Everything "It's critical that marketing is aligned with operations and events, and that we're always connecting the dots to make sure things run smoothly." Katy discusses the broad scope of marketing at City Museum, emphasizing that it goes far beyond traditional advertising. Marketing plays a role in shaping the guest experience, recruiting employees, and even coordinating with the operations team to ensure that events and daily activities run smoothly. Whether it's creating fun and engaging content for social media or collaborating with HR on recruitment campaigns, Katy highlights that marketing is at the core of the museum's success and integral to every department.

Indescribable.Devastating.Unbelievable.If you have watched any news recently, you have likely heard these adjectives employed in attempt to capture the effect Hurricane Helene had on communities across the southeastern United States.Many prayed to be spared from the disaster, but the reality is that storms happen. Storms large and small are a fact of life – when they blow in, they can leave homes and communities, even entire regions destroyed and laid bare.What is true for the environment is also true for us personally.Following Jesus is not a strategy to escape the inevitable storms of life, but Jesus does offer us a place we can build that is guaranteed to hold up against the fiercest of hurricanes and the floods that are destined to come our way.
In this final episode of the Summer School Series on the Play Therapy Podcast, I delve into the profound insights from Garry Landreth's The Art of the Relationship. As we wrap up this series, I explore Landreth's reflections on the dynamic nature of child-centered play therapy (CCPT), emphasizing the importance of presenting our authentic selves to truly connect with and understand the child. I discuss how CCPT allows therapists to experience the child's world while receiving the delicate and subtle messages that reveal the uniqueness of each child's personality. I also highlight Landreth's perspective on the complexity of the therapeutic relationship and how the experiences shared between therapist and child during play therapy are indescribable and can only be fully understood within the context of that relationship. This episode serves as a powerful reminder of the beauty and depth of CCPT, as well as the privilege we have as therapists to engage in this work. Episode Reference: Landreth, G.L. (2023).

Aseity of God - the belief that God doesn't not depend on any cause other than himself for his existence. Self-existent Self-sufficient Self-satisfied 2. What does that say to me? Comforted Encouraged Set free 3. Points for home. How do I take this? Not about me I am free Response of love and devotion Listen to Pastor David explain the “I Am” attribute of God.

Jesus is present among us, possesses us, protects us, and has a purpose for us. As Christians, we ought to fall down in worship and rise up as witnesses. May his glory continually captivate our imagination. May his grace supernaturally empower our devotion. May his gospel radically compel us on mission. In this message on Revelation 1:9–20, Pastor David Platt called us to endure in the power of Christ and lead others to salvation.
