Readings: Psalm 90; 1 John 2:12-14

Synopsis:

In this opening sermon in a new series entitled "Christ in all seasons", Jit preaches on how this place and time we call home is only temporary and we should instead make God our home just as Moses did (Ps 90:1-2). Also, that while God is master of time, we are mastered by it.

In addition to the scheduled readings, Jit refers to Ecclesiastes 3:11-14 and a quote from Polycarp: "“86 years I have served him, and he has done me no wrong. How can I blaspheme my King and my Savior?”
