Break the Box
On the morning of October 10, 2021, at WHBC, Pastor Gary Caudill delivered a compelling sermon titled "Break the Box," based on Mark 14:3-9, with a particular focus on verse 3. This sermon explores the profound act of a woman breaking an alabaster box to anoint Jesus, emphasizing the value of what's inside us over the externals we often prioritize. Pastor Caudill draws parallels between the biblical account and the contemporary Christian experience, urging believers to break free from the confines of their own limitations and surrender fully to Jesus' rule over their lives.
He challenges the congregation to consider where, when, and for whom they are preserving their 'boxes,' suggesting that the true essence of our gifts and callings should not be hoarded but shared in the right place, at the right time, and for our Precious Savior, Jesus Christ. The message concludes with a powerful call to action: to break our boxes, thereby releasing the fragrance of our devotion to Jesus, and to avoid the pitfalls of delaying or misdirecting our gifts that could further the Gospel. This sermon serves as a reminder that our most significant offerings are often held within, waiting to be unleashed for the glory of God.
