Pastor Rayshawn begins our "If God Is For Us" series by focusing on Romans 7 and the dividedness of followers of Jesus when it comes to doing good and practicing evil. Thanks God for Jesus' rescuing us from sin's power!
Jake Belue teaches from the life of King Asa about how to deal with disappointments in our lives by trusting in the faithfulness of God revealed to us in Jesus.
Jesus foretold that Peter would deny Him three times, but what brings Peter to the place of denial is the quest for self-preservation and the sinful complexity that exists in all of us.
In John 18, both Judas betrays Jesus and Peter fights for Jesus. Both of their responses are rooted in self-preservation and broken perspectives about Jesus. When Jesus' mission encounters our wills and our deepest desires, how will we respond?
In the closing words of Jesus' prayer in John 17, He prays for the unity of His followers, the destiny of His followers, and the experience of His followers in knowing God's love for them.
From Jesus' prayer in John 17, Pastor Rayshawn looks at three things that Jesus asks His Father to do for His followers: Keep them in your name, keep them from the evil one, and sanctify them in the truth.
Happy Easter! This week as we are celebrating the resurrection of Jesus, we are focusing on Jesus' prayer for His followers and how it displays the ways Jesus commits to His followers.
