Have we surrendered to Jesus?
Greater Than Covenants & Blood, 4 of 4 June 16th, 2024
“We should continue to embrace all of Jesus’ provision and direction.”
Hebrews 10:26-39 by Michael Lockstampfor (@miklocks)
SUMMARY
Pastor Michael explores the importance of continuing to embrace all of Jesus' provision and direction in our lives. Hebrews 10 reminds us of the incredible sacrifice Jesus made on our behalf. His blood has the power to cleanse our consciences and grant us access to God's holy presence. We are called to embrace Jesus' provision and direction in our lives, drawing near to Him with sincere hearts and full assurance of faith. We're encouraged to reflect on what we have already suffered for Christ - the rejections, trials, and material losses - and to offer those memories back to God with gratitude. By persevering in faith, we preserve our souls and experience the heavenly peace Jesus offers, even amidst life's storms.
REFLECTION & DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
💬 Have we surrendered to Jesus?
💬 What sin is more compelling to us than life with Jesus?
💬 How are we tempted to drift back into giving Jesus direction?
💬 What have we already suffered for trusting Jesus?
💬 How might our suffering spur others to love Him? Will we trust Him with that, too?

Is there someone that you have not sought reconciliation with?
Supernatural Reconciliation, June 9th, 2024
“Jesus empowers us to deal with our past knowing He is in control.”
Philemon by Ryan Gagnon (@RyGagnon)
SUMMARY
In this stand-alone sermon we explored the book of Philemon and how it demonstrates the power of reconciliation that comes through Christ. Using the story of Onesimus, a runaway slave, and Paul's appeal to Philemon for forgiveness and restoration, pastor Ryan showed how Jesus empowers us to deal with our past, extend forgiveness to others just as Christ forgave us, and seek reconciliation rather than avoiding conflict.
REFLECTION & DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
💬 We as a body should be promoting unity collectively. How are we doing at that?
💬 Is there someone that has offended you and maybe they don’t even know it? Have you addressed the situation?
💬 Is there someone that you have not sought reconciliation with? What’s holding you back?
💬 What is Jesus directing you to do?
