Howard Reiter gave the Communion Meditation “Does God Love Me?” referencing Romans 5:6-11 and 1 John 4:10.
While we were still sinners, the death of God’s son reconciled us to Him. Our faith needs to overcome our pride and fear so we can grasp how loving he is.
Pastor Chase Riebel gave the sermon on “Are you a Berean?” Like this ancient group, we want to listen eagerly, not naively, but with an open mind. 1. Fix your thoughts, 2. Ask for wisdom, 3. Cling to the truth.
Fix your thoughts on what is true, honorable, pure and admirable, etc … and practice what you’ve learned. Your thoughts lead to your words, then to action, then to habits, character, and your destiny.
Be so full of scripture that it comes out in every situation; whether you’re happy, sad, angry, scared, etc. Soak it up so it becomes a part of you and use it against anything that comes your way.
