I am looking forward to gathering with fellow believers this Sunday…
The AM sermon is on the Lord’s Supper from Mark 14:22-25. We will also observe the Lord’s Supper at the culmination of the service.
The PM small group lesson gets to some great practical matters in fighting sin.
Looks like we should have a great Lord’s Day.
Matt Chandler, lead pastor of The Village Church, is preaching a series on the church and it is excellent. Here are the sermons and links so far…
1/10/09 – Our Church Heritage
1/17/09 – The Church Universal
1/25/09 – The Church Local
He mentioned that the sermon on 2/1/09 would be on Elders and how they relate to the body.
Excellent stuff.
It seems we are growing increasingly shallow in our relationships with others. Thinking about this last night in my orientation for small groups, I was thinking how easy it is to get together and discuss weather, sports, politics or whatever, but when someone brings up a sin with which they’re struggling, we suddenly don’t have much to talk about. May God help us walk in obedience to Him and embrace His design for the church.
