So many of us accept the free grace of God, only to leave the table and miss the best part of the meal.

Talking Points:

  • Trusting Jesus for salvation is like the appetizer. You’re just getting started toward a fuller experience with God.
  • Living to honor God is the meal where you discover what honors God by digging in to his Word and praying.
  • Helping someone else in their faith journey is the dessert. It’s the cherry on top of the Christian life. John 15:16
