Coached by the incomparable Dawn Staley, the University of South Carolina Women’s basketball team completed an undefeated season beating the University of Iowa and the sensational Caitlin Clark in the title game of the 2024 NCAA Division One women’s baseball tournament.
For many the win was redemption for the Gamecock’s upset loss to Clark’s Hawkeyes in the semifinals of the 2023 tournament. However, for Coach Staley the win was because God’s grace. She put the entire thing in perspective saying, “We serve an unbelievable God,” and her team was the recipient of the uncommon favor of God.
The accomplishments of Dawn Staley and her team shows how great things happen when people of faith work together.
In Luke 5:17-26, we find Jesus teaching the word of God. Gather with him in a small house are folks from Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. Also, in the crowd are the Pharisees and teachers of the law, men who are critical of Jesus.
Knowing the power of Jesus to heal a group of four men try to get their paralyzed friend into the crowed house to see Jesus. But the crowds are too big they can’t get through. Instead of giving up in defeat the men use their God given creativity “tearing the roof off the sucker” the men lower their friend into the house bypassing the big crows going directly to Jesus.
Jesus heals the man saying to the dismay of the Pharisees, “take your stretcher and go to your home.”
It’s abundantly clear be it with the four men in the house that day, or Dawn Stately in the final four. The uncommon favor of God is there when people of faith work together.
Join us tomorrow at Greater Bethel, where we continue to explore God’s uncommon favor in a teaching from Luke 5:17-26 in a teaching entitled Tear The Roof Off The Sucker! The Story Of How Great Things Happen When People Of Faith Work Together.
We worship in person at 140 Rose Street in Athens, with Sunday School with a tasty breakfast starting at 9:30 and worship at 11:00 AM. Watch the live stream of services on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
So, until tomorrow, blessings, peace ,and love.
