WORSHIP || John 4:4-24 Worship in Spirit
What Does It Mean To Be a Worshiper of God? Matt poses this question to us, with a three-point answer, through the book of John. The thing we worship is the thing my life serves most and my heart finds it’s highest delight in. We worship God through the Holy Spirit, we worship in the Presence of God and we worship by Delighting in God.
Acts#35 || Acts 21: 1 to Acts 26:32 Paul is arrested in Jerusalem
Matt speaks on the difficult balance of sanctification that comes at the price paid for us. We follow Paul from the beginning of his arrest in Jerusalem to his testament before Herod Agrippa II. There are two things happening in these passages, Paul’s personal suffering and God’s plan for his kingdom. Where are you up to in embracing this tension in your life?
