Sacrifice — Full Service for 11 January 2026

by ECotN

Pastor Ian explores the Book of Malachi, and how God questioned God's people in regard to their actions and attitudes toward worship. Malachi highlights how offering defiled or blemished sacrifices—such as blind, lame, or sick animals—shows a lack of reverence and honor for God. Instead of bringing their best, the people treated sacred offerings as insignificant, ignoring the true cost and meaning of devotion. This message challenges us to consider the quality of what we give to God and whether we truly value His blessings in our lives.
