You have been entrusted with the most important message in the entire history of the universe. What a privilege to be a Christian! To know the gospel!
I’ve enjoyed looking at some of what the Bible says about how the gospel should impact our culture over the past few months. Believe it or not, there’s still so much more I would like to say! But, at the same time, I think it will be helpful to get back to the normal rhythm of working our way through one book of the Bible.
So, this Sunday, we are back in Luke looking at exactly how we can be sure that what happened to Jesus really is the fulfillment of the great world-changing plan for the rescue of the universe that God lays out in the Old Testament.
I can’t wait!
Plus, we’ve got Equipping hour on top of that. During our time together, I’ll be talking about one essential skill you must develop to help others change and then we’ll spend a few minutes discussing what you have learned from reading Loving Messy People.
It’s going to be great.
Come ready! Come praying! Come expectant!
I’ve included some things in the sermon brief document that I think will help you and your children benefit from the message this Sunday. Check them out. Print out what’s helpful. Or perhaps you can come up with a better plan yourself. For the younger children this Sunday, you can have them listen for the word, “John.” To encourage them, my wife Marda will have some treats afterward
