Here are some “sound bites” from Sunday morning’s message, “Part-time Christians” based on Matthew 23:23-28

Jesus condemns people who try to obey the smallest part of the law but ignore the import stuff.
Jesus says the important stuff is justice (fairness), mercy/compassion, and faithfulness.
We too often only “act” like Christians when it is convenient for us.
We need to realize we have been bought with a price.

Here are some “sound bites” from Sunday morning’s message, “The Christian Life: Stewardship” based on Mark 12:41-44:

Tithing is a command of the law of the Old Covenant.
There is no way Christians can biblically tithe today.
What we call tithing today is merely giving 10%.
God does not call us to tithe.
He calls us to give sacrificially.
He calls us to give faithfully.
He calls us to trust Him to meet our needs.
To require someone to tithe is nothing more than modern-day pharisee-ism and legalism.
