Marc's Second Sermon

Marc was asked to preach again while Dad was away this month for his doctoral program classes in California.  This time it was a morning service with a much larger audience.  If you know Marc, you know that this is WAY out of his comfort zone.  He worked like crazy to understand and apply the passage of Scripture that he had chosen from Ephesians chapter one.  He did an amazing job!  It is so neat to see God use him to speak truth to other people.  If you are interested in listening to the full message, you can find it here:  http://mfbcsermons.weebly.com/morning-sermons.html

      "We may have as much of God as we will.  Christ puts the key of the treasure chamber into our hand, and bids us take all that we want.  If a man is admitted into the vault of a bank and told to help himself, and comes out with one cent, whose fault is it that he is poor.”
