Jody McCoy’s sermon on “The Benevolence of God” started out comparing value systems that we use in our lives and ended up with a testimony of the way God can move in our lives if we let Him. In between Jody elaborated on the way we make decisions and the way we ought to make them as Christians. His testimony related his experiences on a trip to and from Denver and Austin and how God provided many things including a discussion about creation with his seatmates on the return flight. He thought that to be extremely relevant since he is writing a book on creation.

The Droid and perhaps Windows Phone currently do not fully support the SmartPhone App sermon playback feature, it is better to access the blog directly from the http://sermonblog.net site on those platforms for this feature, but the balance of the features work as expected.
