We are a forgetful people in a land of distractions. Our minds are easily captivated by trivial and temporary inducements. New things quickly become old. In our mind’s eye even glory tends to fade and warnings tend to wane. It is no wonder that we who are invisibly united to Christ and visibly in and not of this world live in constant need of renewal. And what is true for the Christian is true for the church. This is a series that seeks to renew the mind of the church. Not so much by reviewing what she is called to do as much as what she is called. As with the Christian so with church, her God-given identity defines her. We who are the church are a people for God and none other.
Before we return to the book of Romans, we will be looking at the what scripture says about the Church, in its nature, how she expresses herself in song, and how the church cares and equips for its members.

The Cost
An Arresting Drama of Divine Love - This sermon focuses attention on the story of Abraham offering up his son Isaac as a sacrifice. The details of the passage graphically foretell the gospel according to the Father and the Son. It affords a unique window into the heart of God with a powerful lesson for us.
Scripture References: Genesis 22:1-14
