Come from All Nations
Series: Followers
North, south, east, and west, Christ's work on the cross is not restricted to one people or group, but is for all people of all nations.  His atoning sacrifice stretches out across the globe.  So his word is aimed at every corner of the planet, as God "desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth." (1 Timothy 2:4). Christ has united, unites today, and will unite people every tribe, race, and nation around him as his followers!

    Don’t Fret the Future
    Series: Followers
    How easy it is to become anxious when things go differently than we had hoped.  We worry about ourselves and our loved ones.  Sometimes anxiety can become so serious that professional help is needed.  Paul writes in Philippians 4:6, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.'  Easier said than done, Paul! Jesus invites us to let anxiety be.  Concerning the things most of us worry about-like food, and clothing- Jesus observes that just as the birds, the lilies, and the grass are well-provided for, we will be taken care of as well.  The adventure of life is one of faith: entrusting ourselves to the care of God, seeking first God's reign, and experiencing the rich provision enjoyed by all of creation as a gift. As followers of Jesus, we have no need to fret the future!

    Know the Real Value of Earthly Treasure
    Series: Followers
    Many people plan their lives with one thought in mind: “I need to become wealthy.” While the money we have is a gift from God, earthly wealth is meaningless without God.  The meaning of life cannot be found in the abundance of earthly possessions, but in the abundance of heavenly blessings. As followers of Jesus, we recognize that everything the world seeks and offers is meaningless. Rather, by God’s help and power, we seek to set our hearts on the treasure that is only found in the fullness of Christ; the only treasure that lasts forever. Sermon Text: Luke 12:13-21

    Theme: Prioritize Time at Jesus' Feet
    Text: Luke 10:38-42
     
    People are busy these days. Whether it's tasks for work, the rigors of school, running your kids to another game or practice, completing the 'honey-do" list or trying to find enough time to fit in your hobbies, we're busy. The busyness of life can very easily lead us to become distracted from that which is truly the "one thing most needful." In the account of Mary and Martha, we're once again reminded of the importance of prioritizing time simply spent sitting at the feet of Jesus and wrapping our busy, stressed selves in the peace only his Word can give! Followers prioritize spending time at Jesus' feet, because we know that's the only place that real rest can be found!
