"The Gift Giver: The Gift of Love | 1 Jn 4:9-10; Rom 8:37-39; Ps 63:3 "
God gives us the most unbreakable, precious gift: His love. And we know the depth of his love because of the depth of his sacrifice: He gave us his one and only Son, even when we did not love him. We don’t deserve his love, nor can we earn his love; God gives us his love simply out of his grace. All we have to do is receive his love.

The Gift Giver: The Gift of Peace | Isaiah 9:6; John 14:27; 2 Corinthians 9:15
Just as Israel was full of worry and anxiety under the oppression of Rome, we experience the oppression of worry and anxiety in our world today. It’s no wonder that one of the greatest gifts God has given us is peace. Jesus is not just the Prince of Peace, nor does He keep peace to Himself as a possession. Rather, in His grace, Jesus has given us HIS PEACE by the power of the Holy Spirit. We can have His peace as a gift right now by just receiving it.

Deconstructing Politics: God in the Conflict (Rom 14:1—15:8)
Christians sadly, embody the same partisan and political divisions of the world. But we have something the world doesn’t: God. What if God is in our political disagreements? What if there is something he is trying to teach us, form us, sanctify us in our conflicts? What if he is can make something new if we discern his presence in our radically opposing passions and beliefs? This draws heavily on Tim Otto’s “Oriented to Faith” and David Fitch’s “Church of Us v Them”
