Episode Details

Are we giving God your best or our leftovers? Malachi 1 exposes the hollow deception of bringing just enough to keep God off our backs. In this message, Pastor Philip Miller describes the high stakes of giving our first-fruits. God would rather shut the Temple doors than accept a cheap charade. 

This is part two of the sermon, "Withholding Worship."
