When we encounter God for ourselves and believe in Him, the only natural response is for us to go and invite our family and friends to “come and see” for themselves. When Christ met Saint Andrew, the First-Called Apostles, the first thing Saint Andrew did was go and tell his brother Simon (Peter) to “come and see”. Later Christ called Philip and he went and told Nathaniel. The only appropriate response for us to is to invite our family and friends to Church to “come and see” Christ, so they can encounter God and believe in Him.

Pastoral Reflections Finding God In Ourselves by Msgr. Don Fischer
Gospel Luke 21:1-4 When Jesus looked up he saw some wealthy people putting their offerings into the treasury and he noticed a poor widow putting in two small coins. He said, "I tell you truly, this poor widow put in more than all the rest; for those others have all made offerings from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has offered her whole livelihood.” Reflection What's the difference in this passage between wealthy people and a poor widow? And why is the poor widow's gift so rich? It's simply because the rich do not understand their need for God. They don't understand that the very thing they are is always because of God's care, God's love. That disposition of a heart when it generously gives to others, is a much greater gift. Closing Prayer Father, fill us with your richness. Fill us with your gifts. We are not enough. We know our need for you, and when you are within us, we are in such a better place to offer who you are to the people around them. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen.

Many of us have heard of Jonathan Edwards and the American revival known as the Great Awakening. Usually remembered for his sermon with the scary title: "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God," there is so much more to say about Jonathan Edwards. He was not just a pastor and theologian. He was also a missionary, a biographer, and the president of a college. Today, he is regarded as one of North America's most brilliant minds. Find out more about Jonathan Edwards as Trinity, Grace, and Sean talk with Dr. Oliver Crisp, Professor of Analytic Theology at the University of Saint Andrews, Scotland. Thanks to the generosity of Reformed Fellowship, we are pleased to offer to our listeners a copy of Simonetta's biography of Jonathan Edwards, written for young readers. Reformed Fellowship is dedicated to the publication and distribution of Reformed materials, and they are excited to offer a line of children's materials for the first time since their founding in 1951. Register here to win a copy. Show Notes: Dr. Crisp's favorite book by Jonathan Edwards is The Freedom of the Will. In addition to being a learned scholar, Dr. Crisp is a talented artist. In fact, the painting of Jonathan Edwards used for our episode today was actually created by Dr. Crisp!
