A People for God

We begin a new sermon series, A People for God: Renewing the Mind of the Church.

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.

Worshiping God Through Missions

Watch
Listen

Just before Jesus is lifted into heaven, He leaves His apostles with a bold and final instruction: “that repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem” (Luke 24:47). The gospel has been preached for nearly 2000 years and nations upon nations have been given the sweet hope of redemption through Jesus Christ. God’s plan of redemption flows from His Church as some are called to labor for the gospel to every tribe and tongue. Each day worshipers are added to His Church through missionaries proclaiming salvation through the name of Jesus Christ. Let us rejoice and worship the Lord of the harvest for His plan of redemption leading to the fulfillment of His Word for His Glory and our joy.
