What are the issues that unite us? What about the issues we let come between us? Should we let them? Pastor Ryan continues our series on The Church God Uses by looking at the grace we give each other and what it looks like to be a family, accepted by God, united in the blood of the Lamb.
Part 8: Living in Light of the Day
October 31, 2021 • Ryan Oddo • Romans 13:11–14
There is coming a day when Jesus returns, coming on the clouds, to establish His kingdom fully on earth as it is in Heaven. The question for the Church that God Uses is, "Are you ready?" How is the knowledge of His imminent return forming the way that you go about your every day life? Are you attentive or have you fallen asleep?
Part 7: Good Neighbors
October 24, 2021 • Ryan Oddo • Romans 13:8–10
There is one debt that can never be paid. That is our debt of love to our neighbor. Not only does Paul challenge us to love, but Jesus challenges our notion of who our neighbor is and blows our categories out to include even the most socially despised person we can think of. Jesus take the word neighbor and includes those with different religious observances, political views, and ethics. When it comes to loving your neighbor, do you include those same people?
