Why was Abel’s gift acceptable to God, while Cain’s was not?. In this powerful message, Dr. Roger Patterson explores what it means to live with a "Faith That Offers Its Best.". Join us as we dive into Hebrews 11:4 to discover how our offerings—given in faith—can continue to speak long after we are gone. As we continue our church-wide series, 40 Days of Faith, Pastor Roger uses the story of Cain and Abel to illustrate the difference between a life of zeal and intentionality versus one of carelessness.. Just as some approach a workout with a competitive drive to "get the t-shirt," our walk with God requires a heart that is fully invested in giving Him our first and our best. The Heart of the Giver: Understanding why Abel was commended as righteous through his sacrifice. Intentionality vs. Carelessness: Learning to move from "just showing up" to giving with passion. A Lasting Legacy: How a gift made in faith "still speaks" even after the giver has passed.
