Q&A with Pastor Mike Fabarez | July 22-23, 2023 | Compass Bible Church

We must evaluate our competing desires to serve God and our own comfort, resolutely deciding to persist in fulfilling the particular calling he has laid on our lives as Christians.

Our desire to be useful to the Lord for the spiritual benefit of others must begin with a sincere devotion to the Lord and a commitment to his eternal priorities.

Jesus gives his followers assurance and confidence in their communion with him, through the Spirit, when we sacrificially love others and do the things that are pleasing to him.

We need to repent of treating God as anything less than who he is and what he deserves—orienting our lives toward a reverential response to God.

We must work to be aware, reflective, and profoundly grateful for God’s grace in forgiving us, kindly upholding us, and providing us with a secured eternal hope.

Active, strategic, and frequent encouragement among Christians is biblically essential and should be the priority for all of us.

We ought to be confident in God’s sovereign work to advance the gospel in our generation, always seeking to be a righteous and wise agent in this successful task.

We need wisdom to discern the larger movements of society that rise up with hostility against the gospel and the values of God, knowing the Holy Spirit is graciously at work to defend us.

Modern culture is still inundated with idols, as each day people pursue goals which the one and only true God can truly and completely supply.
