Beskrivelse

In this series "Baptism: Dead or Alive," we explore how God calls us to complete trust in His ways, even when they seem strange. Baptism, an essential part of God's perfect plan, embodies our trust and transformation in Christ. God went through the broken animals for us to begin a covenant. Christ goes through the waters of baptism and the cross for us to begin the last and greatest covenant. He calls us to do the same.

October 27 2024: A National Grievous Sacred Moment

Jeff addresses the widespread dissatisfaction among Americans with the political system, as reflected in a Pew Research report showing that only 4% believe the system is working well. Despite these concerns, Jeff emphasizes the importance of elections and political leadership, referencing Romans 13, which calls government authorities "servants of God" for the good of the people. Christians are called to respect authority, even when the leadership does not align with their beliefs, while still acknowledging the significance of the character of those in power. However, the key message is that while Christians should be concerned about political matters, they should not be overwhelmed with worry. Jeff distinguishes between concern (caring deeply) and worry (being burdened by uncertainty). He urges the congregation to remember 2 Corinthians 4:8-9, which speaks of being afflicted but not crushed, perplexed but not driven to despair. The upcoming election, while important, is framed as a "grievous sacred moment" – a time that calls for fasting and prayer rather than anxiety.
