But this injury did not stop him, for during the next week he competed in his strongest event, the rings. His routine was excellent, but he astounded everyone by squarely dismounting with a triple somersault twist on a broken right knee.

Blessed are the Merciful Sermon — Sermon outline by Tom Moore on Jesus’ teaching in the Beatitudes, Sermon on the Mount.

INTRODUCTION:

1. We often stress the fact that when we give, we give to Jesus. This is good and right, Matt. 25:34-40.

2. I wonder, though, when we “lay by in store” each Lord’s Day, if we think about who we are giving to in order that it may be giving to Jesus.

3. We think about what we see. There are so many things a congregation does that is not seen.

4. This hour I’d like to walk your mind through those things that you might not be thinking about when you put your money in the plate.

5. I’d like to increase your appreciation for what you do in giving, and increase your joy in giving to Jesus.
