Romans 6:23 declares, “The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”  Here on this Good Friday edition of Abounding Grace pastor Ed Taylor shares how we can move from wages to gift, and that’s through repentance and faith in Christ.  It really is the only way.  But praise God there is a way, thanks to Jesus.  We’re talking about the power of Hope.

As we turn back to Second Corinthians today, we notice some in the church had lost focus. They received this letter from the apostle Paul reminding them that the ministry is to be about Jesus and not about ourselves. It’s a good reminder for us today as we so often struggle in that department.

As you follow the Lord, you can be sure people will say things about you that aren’t true.  That can really hit us like a ton of bricks.  And when it does happen we have a choice to make.  Will we react in the flesh or use it as an opportunity to advance the gospel?  Pastor Ed will talk about that during today’s program.
