“Gain | Save | Give | Grow”: video and audio sermons, and sermon series guides, for this series from Trinity Methodist Church, Linden
'Gain | Save | Give | Grow' - A sermon series on Sacrificial Giving: 9 February to 2 March 2025
This 4-week ‘Gain | Save | Give | Grow’ is based on John Wesley’s ‘Sermon 50’, where the Methodist tradition takes one of its principles of “Gain all you can, Save all you can, and Give all you can.”
In this series there is an extra ‘all you can’, that is “Grow all you can”, because Wesley speaks about the need for Christians to do everything with excellence in his sermon.
In this series we will present a view of sacrificial giving that is healthy and builds the person and the community around them, and reference to where Trinity is already following God’s leading in this way.
We will also explore some of our Methodist heritage and the unique perspective this gives to ‘social holiness’ and ‘Christian perfection’.
