290 | Seven Sermon Summer Surfin’ Spectacular | Peel Back the Layers of God's GraceGrab your sunscreen and a cold glass of homemade watermelon agua fresca — the Seven Sermon Summer Surfin' Spectacular is rolling on! This week, guest speaker Ryan Goodwin joins us to unpack a fascinating question: Why does James 1:17 make a distinction between "every good thing given" and "every perfect gift"? Through a beautifully illustrated lesson with Grandpa's baseball mitt, a hand-forged Roman iron spike, and a set of custom Russian nesting dolls, Ryan breaks down "the gift behind the gift." We'll explore how our human craving for sentiment, beauty, and relational depth completely dismantles pure materialism and serves as an undeniable, built-in proof of God's existence. Get ready to peel back the layers of God's perfect gifts!

The Big Idea: While "good things" satisfy our immediate physical needs, "perfect gifts" point directly back to our Creator.
