In this sermon we continue our study of the Old Testament book, Proverbs, identifying the theme of the book as well as what defines the motivator and sustainer for all Christian living – the fear of the Lord. Lord willing, we will start in Genesis and trace through the Revelation the predominant place this fear has in God’s Word.
Pleasing God, Making Disciples of Jesus Christ

In our journey through 1 Peter, the Apostle is showing us how to live as salt and light in decaying culture. And the first point of emphasis he makes is what describes the whole of the Christian life – submission. He will unfold three relationships where this submission is called for – our public lives as citizens, our vocational lives in the workplace, and our marriages in our homes. We will be in the first one – our public life as citizens.
We will look at how submission is applied in salvation, sanctification, and service which sets the foundation for living as salt and light in our public lives and our family relationships.

In this message, as an introduction to our thematic study of Proverbs, Pastor Jim shares how Christ and our relationship to Him is embodied in wisdom.
Paul tells us because of our identity in God, we are on a mission – to be salt and light in a culture desperately needing to see the reality of Him from His people. Part 3.
