“Robbing God”
Series, “Pitfalls,” Message 5
Mike McDaniel, Lead Pastor
Malachi 3:8-12 (ESV)
8 Will man rob God? Yet you are robbing me. But you say, ‘How have we robbed you?’ In your tithes and contributions. 9 You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing me, the whole nation of you. 10 Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need. 11 I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of your soil, and your vine in the field shall not fail to bear, says the Lord of hosts. 12 Then all nations will call you blessed, for you will be a land of delight, says the Lord of hosts.

READY TO FIND A GROUP or start your own? Worshipping together on Sundays is essential for Christ-followers, but we all need the connections and support we find only in Groups. Find information about our current groups HERE, or go HERE to explore becoming a leader. Contact Jared@gracepointchurch.net or Tim@gracepointchurch.net if you need help. We have three new groups kicking off now! Visit our Groups page and find the OLSON GROUP, the TJOCLINTON/ROSE GROUP, and the ELLIS GROUP. In addition, our YOUNG ADULT GROUP (KNEPPER) has added a Tuesday evening meeting to their schedule. Look at their PAGE for details.
ARE YOU A STAY-AT-HOME DAD? We are starting a new fellowship group that will meet once a month for conversation and support. If you are interested, please contact Jacob Walker at jacob@gracepointchurch.net.
