ON BEING
CHRISTIAN IN THE WORLD
A GCF
Mini-Series
By Pastor Charlie
Last week
we completed a thirteen-month series in 1-2 Samuel that I pray helped you grow
in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ. And, Lord willing, on January 15 we
will begin a several-year series through the Apostle John’s writings, namely,
the Gospel of John, 1-3 John, and Revelation. My prayer for this series is that
we would be more profoundly rooted in the gospel of grace, and that as a result
we would learn to love one another and be on mission in the world.
Tucked in
between these two series, the elders have decided to bring seven messages on
hot topics that are facing Christians today that together we’re calling, On
Being Christian in the World. Our plan is to bring the following messages
in the coming weeks:
q “Our Citizenship is in
Heaven” – Philippians 3:12-4:1
q “The Witness of Singleness
and Marriage: How the Church is Greater than Both” – Revelation 21:9-11
q “The Witness of Little
Children: Building the Church of Generation Z and Generation Alpha” – Psalm
78:1-8
q “The Witness of Truth” –
Matthew 28:18-20
q “The Witness of Love” –
John 13:31-35
q “The Witness of Justice” –
Micah 6:6-8
q “The Witness of Global
Missions” – Revelation 7:9-17
This is
our plan, and our passion is that as a people we would grow in knowledge and
perspective, grow in love for one another, and grow in the desire to bring the
gospel to the world.
Throughout
this mini-series, your bulletins will contain a blank half-sheet for sermon
notes with several important questions on the back. Please make use of this
simple tool, for the more deliberate we are about reflection and application,
the more helpful we’ll be to one another in the coming weeks.
May the Lord use his Word,
by his Spirit, to equip us for his work in the world!
