Offering for September 20, 2025

Pioneer Operating Budget

My favorite fruit is mango. A mango boasts an exotic and captivating flavor. The richness and complexity of a mango's taste make it a truly indulgent fruit! The initial taste is a burst of luscious sweetness, followed by a slightly tart undertone that provides a perfect balance.

In Psalm 34, we read, “Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! There is no lack to those who fear Him.” This figurative language, "Taste and see that the Lord is good," invites us to not just believe in God's rich goodness, but actively experience it in our lives. To "taste" the Lord is to engage with faith in a deeply personal, intimate way.

Just as we use our sense of taste to savor and appreciate different flavors, we are called to savor and appreciate the richness and diversity of God's love, mercy, and grace. It means opening our hearts to the work of the Holy Spirit and allowing God's word to nourish and guide us. The goodness of the Lord is revealed in countless ways. It is present in the beauty of creation, in acts of kindness, and in the love we share with others. Today, let’s taste and see that the Lord is good by giving back our tithes and offering!
