Message Summary

In our final message, Gene talks about “Limitless Generosity”  as we explore Paul’s farewell message to the believers in Ephesus. Paul emphasizes the need to stay rooted in the Gospel and commit to God’s grace while living lives of radical generosity. He encourages the believers to slay materialism, trust in God’s provision, and bring delight to God’s heart through their giving. Pastor Gene urges the congregation to embrace a life of limitless generosity driven by gratitude for God’s grace.
