In this Sunday’s teaching, Rick spoke about Jesus’ invitation to die to the old ways of living in the world. Hebrews 12 describes sin as “clinging so closely.” Rick invites us to go past the point of no return in leaving behind our old ways. The Christian walk requires us to address the root of our sin, rather than seeking to tame it, in order to make room for the fruit of His Kingdom. Though this means dying to the old ways, Jesus’ call isn’t just to death but to the abundant life.
