September 29, 2024 • Rev. Aaron Bjerke • Proverbs 14
Self-awareness is not simply the process of sitting with yourself. Instead, it’s the process of discovering Jesus’ light within you. For it’s his light and love, because of his resurrection, that moves us from darkness to light; from unhealth to health, from brokenness to wholeness.
Gentleness can be seen as an unimportant value, as it doesn’t sound like a productive value. Yet, it is one of the key values and virtues you need in order to change, and to move forward in life in a positive and healthy way. This sermon will help you consider how gentleness might be expressed in your life for the sake of yourself and those around you.
