We begin a new series in which we are trusting that God will empower us to be a people to give ourselves to the building of a community of people who with their lives and words glorify God.

In the midst of a distracted, disinterested, undisciplined and frenzied culture, Psalm 1 wants to shape us to be a community that joyously meditates on Scripture.

Luke's Gospel shows us an untouchable joy that is Historical, Inclusive, Christ-Centered, and Transformative.

Isaiah shows us a vision Of God who cares about justice so much that he sends a servant to bring about a just world, and plants a just community to bear witness to it.

Isaiah offers a vision of God that speaks tenderly to those who are far away and invites them to come home by embracing His glory.

Isaiah offers a vision of the world for what we want it to be, and points us to the one who promises to bring it about.

In this final closing section of Romans, Paul brings us to the place of magnifying the greatness and beauty of God through the Gospel.

Wherever you’re at in your faith journey, the call from this passage is the same: simple, small, ordinary faithfulness. What are the ordinary ways that the Lord can and will use your life for His glory and the good of those around you?

In Paul's travelogue we get a glimpse into Paul's ambition to see the message of the Gospel spread, and challenges a Christian with the same ambition.

Paul shows us in this passage how we need a common ethic, common standard, and a common hope to build unity in a divided world.
