Beginning Sunday 10/7 with a pot-providence meal we will step off on our fall spiritual growth campaign: The Miracle of Mercy. If you’d like to join a small group, we’ll get you connected: email us.
Did you know that mercy is God’s number one characteristic in the Bible? The world portrays God as a God of anger and judgment. But God shows himself first and foremost as a God of mercy.
If mercy is God’s number one characteristic that he reveals to us in the Bible — if that is the most important thing he wants us to know about him — then it must be the most important thing for us to learn about him. And it must also be the most important character trait that God wants to develop in us.
Jesus said, “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” – Matthew 5:7 (NIV)
