Rev. Chris Meckley Psalm 23 is used so often inside and outside the Church that we almost have a tendency to stop hearing what it actually says. We’re taking an in-depth look at the Psalm to recover an understanding of what it means for us today. Psalm 23; John 8:31-38 Thinking back to times where you’ve walked “through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, how can you see that God was actually at work in you through that time? We’re told that to live faithfully we simply have to follow our Shepherd and abide in his Word; easier said than done. What are some practical ways that you can take steps in your own life to follow and abide?

Jesus’ identity as Messiah defines our identity as his followers -- are we really willing to take on this identity and the cross it will bring? If so, we will know what true Life really is. Luke 9:18-26, Galatians 3:24-4:7 Meaningful conversation starters: Who do you say Jesus is? What is your identity in light of Jesus' identity? What difference does it make in your daily life when that identity trumps all others? Rev. Chris Andrews

A powerful work of the Holy Spirit happens through our repentance. However, is repentance saying sorry, or something more? What is repentance (and what isn’t repentance)?

Sometimes in Christianity it seems like holiness and love for your neighbor are at odds with each other, but are they? What do “holiness” and “love” really mean? Leviticus 19:1-2, 9-18, John 13:31-35 Meaningful conversation starters: What might it look like in your personal, family, or work life to be “distinctive?” Rev. Chris Meckley

In today’s sermon we look at three attributes of those who follow Jesus: honesty about, and self-awareness of our relationship with Him; listening and obeying Jesus’ words; everlasting protection. Scripture: John 10:22-30; Rev 7:9-17 Rev. Dr. Jonathan Tagg
