In this powerful message from Calvary, Pastor George Sawyer unpacks one of the most profound accounts of restoration in Scripture—the story of Mephibosheth from 2 Samuel 9. Discover how God's restoration not only heals brokenness but multiplies blessings beyond their original state. Through the kindness King David showed to Mephibosheth, we see a picture of how Jesus extends grace to us, restoring identity, purpose, and relationship with Him. This message challenges us to embrace spiritual hunger, remain in God's presence, and extend restoration to others. Don't miss this life-changing word on God's power to redeem and transform!
