SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, March 10, 2024

Dear Friends in Jesus –

We continue in our "Long Obedience in the Same Direction". We’ve engaged Perseverance, Repentance, and Obedience – seeking to understand how these concepts may work through/with God’s Spirit that we might, through grace, achieve lives worth living.

This Sunday we will worship and we will engage Worship. Is there a right way to worship? Yes, through orthodoxy. (Before anyone gets too excited, let me say that orthodoxy is from two Greek words – ortho meaning right, and doxia, meaning praise.) And in the years of the Reformation, one of the fathers of this denomination and of the Reformation, John Calvin, looked around and realized that there were many groups who would call themselves Christian, so how was one to know? He came up with this: “wherever we find the Word of God surely preached and heard, and the sacraments administered according to the institution of Christ, there, it is not to be doubted, is a church of God."

Join us this Sunday. Together we will worship and Jesus will be glorified. Yes, that’s what we get to do!
