Matthew 6:12 Forgiven and Forgiving 9/1/24 Worship Service
Forgiven… This one verse contains one of the most difficult challenges imaginable. First, we are to call upon our Lord to forgive us. We are to trust him – not ourselves, not our works, not our own efforts – to do what we cannot do. We are to ask our Lord to do what we desperately need him to do for us, and what only he can bring about for us. This is nothing short of believing and living in light of the gospel.

Matthew 6:11 Our Daily Bread 8/25/2024 Worship Service
We trust God… Though Christ’s instructions about daily bread are short, they are packed with one big point: God’s people are to trust him. We express that trust by regularly, dependently, and faithfully calling upon him.

August 18, 2024 Worship Service
These first “petitions” of the Lord’s Prayer all center upon our God. They put his will before our own, teaching us to desire what he wants first and foremost.

August 11, 2024 Worship Service
Who we pray to. Our prayers are directed not to a God who is far away or uncaring, but instead to one whom Jesus has given every Christian a relationship with. We can rightly call upon him as our “Father” – and what a privilege that is!

The Lord’s Prayer comes in the middle of what has been called the “Sermon on the Mount.” This is a sermon where Jesus describes how the people of his kingdom will be blessed, and what life as a “kingdom person” looks like – both eternally and in the present.

2 Peter 3:14-18 Growing in Jesus 6/30/24
Embrace God’s plan. Summarizing his earlier point, Peter points out that Jesus hasn’t yet returned because God’s plan calls for time so that many throughout the ages will be saved (including you and I!). We “wait” because God’s plan is best and merciful and gracious.

2 Peter 3:8-13 What Are We Waiting For 6/23/24
We wait for God’s perfect timing. What seems like a “delay” to us is actually intentionally planned by the Lord. Jesus has not yet come back because the Lord is giving the blessing of time to all who will trust in Christ. His timeline is not our own and that is actually great news!

2 Peter 3:1-7 His Words Endure 6/16/24
When mockers mock, they forget. Mockers make a very wrong assumption when they look at the world and conclude that God won’t keep his promises: the very world we see is what God has created. God has acted in the past, we have every reason to believe his promises for the future.
