Sermon Notes

Playing Favorites

We all play favorites. We have a favorite restaurant, a favorite sports team, a favorite movie, etc. Favorites are fine, when applied to these things. But favorites are wrong when it comes to how we treat other people–especially when we let the social-scorecard deem who matters and who doesn’t. In God’s economy, we are all his favorites! Lean in with us as we talk about the value of all people and how to treat each other through the eyes of God’s amazing mercy!
